Featured KJV Wrongly Translates the Hebrew

Did they translate off the Hebrew text, or brought it in from Vulgate or something?

 

Guess this is where the Kjv "inspiration:" kicks in! The "Holy Spirit" revealed to them out of the blue to add it in!

 

Wheres our resident KJV Onlyist when you need him?

 

Yes. George Antonios. I watched his KJV vs New World Translation + Modern versions

 

They did not know of the Granville Sharp rule!

 

What did you think of the presentation?

 

Thought that Rule came later on in history though!

 

Are all the above translations which do not say sick and incurable also wrongly translated, or just the King James?

 

Not following you. Where do these (below) say the heart is sick and incurable?

“The heart is deep beyond all things, and it is the man, and who can know him?” (Brenton, LXX)

“The heart is depraved above all things, and it is unsearchable, who can know it?” (Latin Vulgate)

“The heart is stubborn above all things; who can understand it?” (Lasma Syriac Bible)

“The herte of man is schrewid, and `may not be souyt; who schal knowe it? (Wycliffe, 1382)

“Amonge all thinges lyuynge, man hath the most disceatfull and vnsercheable hert. Who shall then knowe it?” (Coverdale Bible 1535)

“Among all thynges, man hath the most deceiptfull and stubburne heart: Who shall then knowe it?” (Bishops Bible 1568)

“The heart is deceitfull and wicked aboue all things, who can knowe it?” (Geneva Bible 1587)

 

Spoilers!!

Conclusion: Modern versions are just as bad as the JW's New World Translation (NWT) and want to remove core Christian beliefs from scripture. To undermine the true faith.

It's classic KJVO argument;
1)KJV is the (*only) word of God so any differences is satanic, with the purpose to change the word of God.
2)Verses are "removed" from new translations rather than verses were added to KJV (not purposely so)
3)grouping modern translations with the NWT, then connecting this with JW beliefs was derogatory. (tactic to attempt gulit by association)

Additionally the only time Greek manuscripts were mentiond, was to say that the video will not be dealing with greek manuscripts. Since bible translations should be compared to the manuscripts rather than to one another, his argument was lacking.

 

this is correct as far as i understand.

 

Correct. Granville Sharpe did not write his monograph revealing his research until 1798.

Thanks. Yes, those examples show they do not translate the word as wicked, but they also show they do not translate it as sick or incurable. Looking as the LXX translation, they seem to be translating “ʼânash” with βαθεῖα, which Brenton translates into English as “deep” -- βαθεῖα ἡ καρδία παρά πάντα (Deep is the heart beyond everything), καὶ ἄνθρωπός ἐστι καὶ τίς γνώσεται αὐτόν. So it seems a number of translators believe that the word has a broader range of meaning than just sick or incurable. These more modern translations provide other examples.
