If you are referring to the "Authorized Version" or the KJV, it underwent 17 different translations, or editions, and not all the KJV that we read from now are the same.

The KJV was worked over pretty well back in the day, and not all the work was agreed upon. In fact, the editors wrote an extensive "Notes to the Readers" that actually refutes many arguments of the KJV only crowd,especially about the word for word translation.
