Compare your Bible version with the KJV and find out.
1 Peter 4:[SUP]19 [/SUP]Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. KJV
Would you rather have the KJV's message that those that suffer entrust the keeping of their souls to Jesus Christ in doing a good job of that while the believers suffer or would you rather have a changed message that some Bibles do in having it about the believer doing a good job while they suffer, and some do it by keeping a commitment to the Lord religiously too?
So I would rather have the KJV's message of His promise to rest in Him that He will do a good job keeping my soul if and when I suffer.. as I do suffer now.. and He is keeping my soul well, rather than be striving to follow Him in doing the best I can while suffering to do so.
This is how I get to know Him & the power of His resurrection when I trust him for all things.
Romans 8:26-27 is about how the Holy Spirit has intercessions for us but He cannot even utter His own groanings in verse 26 which is why verse 27 exists to testify of HOW which is by the Son as the One that searches our hearts as Hebrews 4:12-16 confirms and thus He is the One that knows the mind of the Spirit to give the Spirit's unspoken intercessions to the Father because the Son, the man Christ Jesus, is the only Mediator between God and man ( 1 Timothy 2:5 )
Many believers today thinks they have the gift of tongues when they had a supernatural encounter apart from salvation when they felt a spirit coming over them in bringing this tongue but since it comes with no interpretation, they assume it is a prayer language of the Holy Spirit. BUT...
BUT in all Bibles in John 16:13, the Holy Spirit cannot speak for Himself, but speaks what He hears and so He cannot use tongues which is for speaking unto the people in their native tongues that is unknown to the tongue speaker ( 1 Corinthians 14:20-21 ) to turn that appointed gift around to serve as a means for uttering His intercessions to God by.
So all I can do is ask you to go before that throne of grace, trust Jesus Christ as your Good Shepherd, to see which Bible version you should rely on for the meat of His words to discern good & evil by Him in the KJV.
May He help you to see how modern Bibles have changed His words that they remove the meat for believers to discern good & evil and thus wind up supporting false teachings or false tongues that are not of Him at all but is found in the world as vain & profane babbling which is of the devil.
The Lord wants us to pray so that we may know what we had prayed for and give the Father genuine heartfelt thanks in Jesus's name for answers to prayers.
As it is, many believers have not tested the spirits, but believed every thing falling on them to be of God, including the tongues that it brings ( 1 John 4:1-6 ), thus falling away from the faith in giving heed to seducing spirits & doctrines of devils ( 1 Timothy 4:1-2 ) in promoting this second blessing which Paul warned against ( 2 Corinthians 11:1-4, 13:5 & 2 Thessalonians 2:13-15 & 2 Thessalonians 3:1-7,14-15 )

This is very interesting question.
I am quite sure Jesus was speaking in Greek, at least in some time. When speaking with Romans, Pilate, centurions, Syrian woman etc.
Its quite possible that many of His sayings in the New Testament are not translations to Greek at all.

I believe that any translation that is entered into with the prayerful request for God's guidance will end up being the words of God.
Translators in the 20th century are just as able to ask for, and receive God's guidance when doing their translation as the translators that King James employed were.
