Is that the version you follow, or do you prefer a more recently doctored version?

KJV. The reason is the path that the Bible has taken. The first article on this page...

Will show you how God has kept His Word. He did not need someone to come along 1400 years ago and create a quran, as we were told in the Bible which pre-dates the quran that there would be nothing new. It was not gabriel that visited muhammed, but rather a demon.

Centuries before Tyndale's English translation of the Bible, two versions existed in Latin. The Latin Vulgate is a translation into 'common' (vulgar, thereby vulgate) Latin completed by Jerome in 383 CE. Jerome did the translation himself directly from the Hebrew, and today it is commonly known as The Vulgate.
However, there is a much older Latin version of the Bible, used for centuries by Christendom. This version, called The Old Latin Vulgate (or Itala), is known to have been in existence by AD 157. Church father Turtullian, in his own writings dated around 200 C.E, cited various Latin quotations directly from The Old Latin Vulgate. This "original" vulgate (Latin) version continued to be used for nearly a millennium, until Latin basically ceased being a common language.

The original Holy Bible in Hebrew is the oldest bible known to man. Not a lot of people have a copy of it. If you request a copy of it, you will have to be added onto the FBI's "most watched" list because of the secrets it contains. If you read the original Bible, you will find out the actual day and time you will die, and what will cause you to die.
Most Christians read from the King James' version of the Bible.

My comment to you is to read your question one more time. If the bible which is supposed to be the word of God has too many versions that one may get confused which to follow it will make a rational person wonder for a second that maybe bible is not the word of god afterall since if god can not protect his own word from change he is not worth worshipin

the Orthodox one for the Christian Church. All other forms have been modified, a lot of those 'reformers' took out the bits they didn't agree with.

It has been modified and rewritten too many times, so nothing is trustworthy anymore.
