I’m with you on the KJV, however, read the ESV for clarity.

The thing is with translations that sometimes words and phrases have no direct translation so the next best thing is used. This is what’s called “Dynamic Equivalency” meaning that this is the closest we can come to the meaning; but then of course it depends on what denomination is doing the translating.

Well, if you want to be added I would like to add you, can you you just use KJB verses when making comments?
