And how is a slight difference in words used equate to difference in meaning?

And why do you object to updated versions of Scripture to keep up with the changes in English language usage?

Or should we all still be speaking King James English?

If you look here (Bible Hub http://biblehub.com/) at any one particular verse, what you will note is the consistency between various translations with the sole exception of the Duoay-Rheims version, the official Catholic version. If there’s going to be a difference in actual translation. or outright error in translation, it’s almost without fail, going to show up there.

It’s funny that a Catholic would criticize different translations when the Catholic church can’t even put out a decent translation of the Bible that Catholics claim their church WROTE.

Then let's go with the Greek. Would that solve your problem? You still have to get it into the native language for folks to understand it.

btw....you confuse sola scriptura with what you post.
