- I propose that we use the king james version for this entry.
- Why? Personally, I believe we should keep the NIV because it gives a more precise meaning for some of the words. PhilipB 11:17, 5 January 2007 (EST)
- Because the King James version is so familiar, so beloved, and of such great literary importance, it seems to me that if an article is describing a familiar or frequently quoted passage in the Bible, it should present both a (presumably more) accurate modern translation and also the more frequently quoted King James version.
