There could be a random number generator running in this poster's head and I do understand that sometimes a confusion could arise between the KJV and the NKJV where N = new.
James 3:16 Where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
False "churches" (such as the Roman splinter group) require false "scripture" to perpetuate confusion and—having created a problem—come up with the "solution" but what a very expensive remedy that turned out to be.
Eventually though we did get a quote from the KJV (I Corinthians 13) but as for the others it was quite an assortment.
Romans 12 came from the New American Standard version. What is wrong with that?
Next there was a passage from Matthew 7 taken from Young's Literal Translation. God does not have thousands of millions of meanings for His message of Salvation to be applied in as many different ways but heretics forever change what words mean even in the same sentence! In the following example "What about Young's 'literal' translation?" by Will Kinney several instances are cited.
Quote:
Young’s “literal” (Hah!) translation.
I recently had another conversation at one of the Christian Forums about whether or not there exists such a thing as a complete, inspired and 100% true Bible in any language, and I ran into another guy who was trying to push Young’s ‘literal’ translation as being better than the King James Bible.
So, I addressed the points he raised and then finally decided to write something more about this bogus bible version so that everyone can see it for what it is - just another shabbily dressed imposter.
Here is our initial conversation, followed by some more examples of just how pathetic this so called ‘literal’ translation really is.

The next verse from I John 2 appeals to the ESV. How complete a text is this? Well, not very. Try looking up any of these and see how you get on.
Leaving out inconvenient bits of God's Inerrant Word is the first step for those seeking to eliminate The Bible altogether. Why anyone would emulate such a policy by replication or by imitation is beyond me but that is just what the NKJV has done in this case.

Question: What is wrong with the New King James Version (NKJV)? All it does is modernize the words of the King James Bible, right? Why should I read the King James and not the helpful New King James?
Answer: The New King James is not a King James Bible. It changed thousands of words, ruined valuable verses, and when not agreeing with the King James Bible, it has instead copied the perverted NIV, NASV or RSV. And this you must know: those who translated the NKJV did not believe God perfectly preserved His words!

Eventually the KJV did turn up but given the confused state of previous selections I can only assume this was accidental or, alternatively, hit upon by assigning numbers to different "translations" and allocating them to different verses by some random process. Jesus however is not random but necessary from the moment Adam took notice of the fruit offered to him in contravention of God's Clear Statement not to eat it. Necessary for a reason. So that He could die to set us free. For so many generations across thousands of years people suffered, knowing that the promise would be fulfilled, trusting God to make things right. For that God needed a son just as He'd made known to Abraham but in God's case that son would not be spared. If we judged The Bible by modern standards that message of Love would no longer exist.
It's that important.
