Actually Shakespeare knew the Geneva Bible well and that language made it into the plays. The Geneva language was an important influence on the work of the KJV translators.

Some say Shakespeare was involved in the translation. If so, my guess would be John. Certainly not Paul.

Not the KJV. Most of his plays were wrote before that was done but considering how much of what he wrote referenced the Bible he was definitely well acquainted with the Good Book.

More likely the other way. The King James Bible was written in the period 1604-1611. Shakespeare's plays started being performed in London around 1592, so it's more likely that Shakespeare served as an example to the KJV writers.
