I’d suggest that you guys use the JST - Inspired Version - instead of the KJV, due to all the error found in the KJV has been removed.

Unless you do not care for all the time and effort Joseph Smith put into it - following the COMMAND of GOD.

By 1833, Smith said it was sufficiently complete that preparations for publication could begin,[citation needed] though continual lack of time and means[citation needed] prevented it from appearing in its entirety during his lifetime. He continued to make a few revisions and to prepare the manuscript for printing until he was killed in 1844.[6] Regarding the completeness of the JST/IV as we have it, Robert Matthews has written:

[T]he manuscript shows that Smith went all the way through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. But it also shows that he did not make all the necessary corrections in one effort. This situation makes it impossible to give a statistical answer to questions about how much of the Translation was completed or how much was not completed. What is evident, however, is that any part of the Translation might have been further touched upon and improved by additional revelation and emendation by Smith.[7]
