We speak English. The King James is the inerrant inspired infallible
word of God for English speaking people. The Greek Orthodox ( not real
familiar with it ) is worthless for us as would a Russian or Latin Bible
be.
The Catholic Bible is particularly distasteful to Evangelicalism as it
contains several spurious books ( Tolbit, Bel and the Dragon et. al. )
from which many of the heresies of Roman Catholicism come. Plus if you
disagree with any of these teachings from Rome you are cursed and on the
way to Hell. I didn't say that the Pope ( who speaks in the place of God
) did.
