    The ones I think are most clearly important:

    *show again-show--it seems like it might not be important, but in context I think it is.

    * against he come -to meet him, Ex. 7:15

    * allege -prove, Acts 17:3--allege is used legally to mean that something will be proved, so it might not be technically archaic, but it is commonly used to mean something entirely different than what it means in this verse.

    *allow-approve--doesn't seem like it would make a lot of difference, but in the contexts given, it does.

    * ambassage -embassy, Lk. 14:32--ambassage isn't even in my ordinary dictionary.
