Versions

Revelation 22:18-19 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

That is a very scary warning. I read and wrote it in English from the King James Version. Biblegateway.com offers 55 English versions of the bible. Is English your native language? If not then there are 19 versions in Spanish, 4 in French, 5 in Italian. 5 in German and in total so far 62 different languages available. I know that is not every language on earth. I am not even sure every language has a written dialect, or that all people can read.

Revelation 14:6-7 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Fear not, God will provide His Word.

What of the warning I began with, are not all these versions changes, and variations adding and subtracting words? While I cannot answer that with a degree of certainty which will soothe every doubt, I would ask you to come back tomorrow for translations. There is an answer I can live with.
