Now it’s catching up with the times.

Barbour’s Simplified KJV builds off the familiarity and trustworthiness of the King James Bible while removing the difficulties of antiquated language and punctuation.
Keeping all the original translation work of the 1611 Bible, the Simplified KJV carefully updates old styles that may interfere with your understanding today:

outdated verb styles are refreshed—for example, art becomes are; gavest becomes gave
old forms of address—like thee, thou, and ye—are updated
confusing older terms—such as wroth or divers—are modernized
pronouns for God—He, His, Him, You, Yours, Me, My—are capitalized for clarity
quotation marks are included with spoken language
long sentences are shortened with modern punctuation
paragraphs are added throughout

The Simplified KJV maintains the feel of the original King James while markedly increasing its readability, bringing the trustworthy old translation into the 21st century.
