Actually the NIV is more confusing (on purpose) than the good old KJV. For instance, in the NIV the word "Hades" is substituted for the word Hell something like 8 times.

Ask the ordinary person on the street what Hell is and they know right away, ask them what "Hades" is and they won't know for sure.

Hades was used in the NIV, because the Lesbian Virginia Mollenkott who helped write the NIV was offended by the word Hell, as well as the word sodomite, so she insisted that that word be changed also to 'shrine prostitute"

Sticking with the good old KJV and just getting more familiar with the English language would be a big help in your walk.
