The King James Version continues to be the best-liked rendering of the Bible into English. This translation continues to hold first place among English-reading students by reason of its diction, its fidelity to the original text, and its spirituality. While its wording has become archaic, its text has become sacred.

"For almost three centuries the Authorized, or King James, Version has been the Bible of the English-speaking world" (The Ancestry of Our English Bible, by Professor Ira Maurice Price, ninth edition, 1934, p. 282).
