These modern translations destroy the poetry. For example: King James Version: "Lift up ye gates" Modern: "Open the door"

I've been meaning to buy a new version of Parson's Quick Verse for my computer, but the one I want is too expensive. Meantime, I have an ancient 16-bit program with the King James Version (AKA Authorized Version), which is what I prefer for my own use. It's not as if people don't easily understand what "thou" means.

QV4.0 won't work under Windows 2000, so the time may be coming to bite the bullet and upgrade.
