...detractors, who haven’t read the book.

Yeah, these can easily be dismissed, but there is a VAST crowd of folks who HAVE read the book who find the King James wording a bit much by someone who is 'translating' it for a mid 1800's population.

King James wording a bit much by someone who is ‘translating’ it for a mid 1800’s population.

King James wording could just as easily be described Biblical writing.

...and easily recognized by readers of both the Bible and Book of Mormon. The words of Isaiah and other Old Testament Prophets were translated as Joseph Smith read them from the brass plates the Nephites had with them from the old world.
