I just wish we could all go back to the traditional King James version of the Bible, which my Grandmother read to me as a child.

Actually, the New American Standard Bible (NASB) is considered a more accurate translation of the Greek Septuagint than even the King James, although the King James has its finer points in relation to the Hebrew.
The problem of the KJV, IMHO, is that the archaic language used (yes, not Old English, or Middle English) creates many, many areas of confusion regarding the sense of how a word was used in either the Hebrew or the Greek.
