And that’s fine with me. I loved the sound of the language.

However, it’s not a flawless translation either.

And it’s silly to try and use it with Chinese English as a Second Language learners.

Yes it is and that is why you used the correct wording and not a modern translation ('out')

The King James is actually easier to read than the modern versions.

It has its own built in dictionary and rhythm.

Once a foreign student reaches the level of 6th grade English, he should be able to read it with no problem.
