Best Answer

The only one and powerful above all Bibles is the King James Version...

Answer #2:

There are many translations of The Bible largely because language is insufficient to fully describe the word of God. Certain words in the biblical texts have multiple meanings and scholars often disagree to one single translation over another. No single translation is perfect.

Suggest using multiple translations including KJV and another such as NIV NASB. You often need to read a complicated verse in several translations before its meaning becomes evident.

A parallel bible is a good reference so you can see the same verses in two translations side-by-side. Billy Graham had over 20 English translations of the Bible in his study.
