But all translations are just an opinion of what the Greek and Hebrew say so it is rather meaningless. There is no punctuation or chapter/verse numbers in the original text.

I think i know what you mean, i have a problem trusting some of them, for instance the living Bible is not a translation but only paraphrased version of the KJV, yet many of the so called versions put out by religious institutes are much like the living bible.

They call them translations but are they? or are they just to reinforce their preexisting views?

But there is such a thing as common sense, and we need to use that rather than put much faith in the so called doctors of religion, the teachers, masters, fathers, reverends, and every other big important tittle.
