I have seen many versions of Bible and new editions are coming in market by leaps and bounds.
Jesus pbuh said in the book of Revelation Chapter 22 Verse 18-19 ". . . If any man shall add to these things (or delete) God shall add unto him the plagues written in this Book."
My question is when these bible editors and publishers will have pleague according to the glad tidings by Jesus pbuh.

It is not so much that they Add, it is that certain words are more accurately or less accurately translated etc. And if they omit things from the bible, they still have to, by law, have the omitted verse in asterix and on hand. However, I remember an occation when the catholic church tried to put in a verse with the word Trinity in it. It wasn't allowed to circulate. (In the early eighties in Europe).

You're not really refuting the Trinity here, just a demonstrating that taking an analogy too far will break it. Just like any other analogy. And Trinitarians don't say that the Father and the Son are the same Person, but that both are God. You're papering over the vast number of prooftexts for the deity of Jesus, such as the Gospel of John's prologue, Thomas' confession of Jesus as his Lord and his God, and so forth.

Here’s a tip about Revelation (Muslims can use it to corner Christians)…
Point 1. Firstly, it says not to add or take away anything from that book, not the bible, but only that “book of prophesy”. Remember that Revelation existed on its own before it got into the NT.
Point 2. They ADDED to that book. What did they add? The rest of the NT.
Point 3. Big trouble for them: plagues, boils on the skin, fire from heaven, much blood, hehe lucky Christians.

That verse in Revelations refers to unauthorized changes to John's vision. The Bible as a book didn't exist at the time.

All translations are written by people experienced in exegesis of the original Greek Septuagint or Latin Vulgate.
Read up on Bible translation accuracy you might be surprised.
Pbuh?

I beleive that, in context of what John was saying, he was referring to his revelation that he was writing down. Not the entire Bible.

Punter, you don't know the Bible well enough to quote from it, dude. John had no idea that there would be a Bible.

Yes, meaning the book is not divinely protected.
IT can be changed.
