Well we will have to disagree on this because the NKJV was written to fix some of those errors.
Like I said before they are small errors that do not change the salvation message, but they are errors none the less. Like the very minor ones that really make no difference like for example as the KJV says Holy Ghost and the actual translation is Holy Spirit.
It is nothing that affects the message but is still an error in translation none the less......
Granted, while I do use Modern Translations to update the "Early Modern English" (1600's English) to "Late Modern English" (Today's English), the NKJV makes huge corruptions to God's Word (i.e. the KJV).
It changes:
"soul" (KJV) to....... "living being" (NKJV) (Genesis 2:7)
"sodomites (KJV) to "perverted persons" (NKJV) (1 Kings 14:24, 15:12, etc.)
"which are saved (KJV) to "who are being saved (NKJV) (1 Corinthians 1:18)
"bewitched the people (KJV) to "astonished the people (NKJV) (Acts 8:9)
"They were amazed" (KJV) to "They are dismayed" (NKJV) (Job 32:15)
"repented" (KJV) to "relent" (NKJV) (Matthew 21:32)
"wounds" (KJV) to "tasty triffles" (NKJV) (Proverbs 18:8) Tasty triffles? Really?
"dishonesty" (KJV) to "shame" (NKJV) (2 Corinthians 4:2)
"and let not thy soul spare for his crying." (KJV) to "and do not set your on his destruction." (NKJV) (Proverbs 19:18)
In Isaiah 11:3, the entire phrase "And shall make Him of quick understanding" in the KJV is eliminated in the NKJV, NWT, NASV, NIV, and RSV.
In the footnoes on Daniel 3:25, the NKJV casts doubt on the words, "Son of God" by placing in the footnote: "Or: a son of the gods."
In 2 Timothy 2:15, the KJV says, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God." The NKJV and NASV change "study" to "be diligent." The NIV and RSV change the word "study" to "DO YOUR BEST." There is a big difference in me "studying" versus "being diligent" and or "doing your best."
"to take on" (KJV) to "give aid" (NKJV) (Hebrews 2:16).
Jesus did not take on the nature of angels. Big difference to what the NKJV says.
(KJV) "For verily he took not on [him the nature of] angels; but he took on [him] the seed of Abraham."
(NKJV) "For indeed He does not give aid to angels, but He does give aid to the seed of Abraham."
"God" (KJV) to "divine" (NKJV) (1 Peter 3:20)
I know God was longsuffering as He waited in the days of Noah.
But in the world does "divine longsuffering supposed to mean?
(KJV) "Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water."
(NKJV) "who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while [the] ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water."
"Corrupt" (KJV) to "Peddle" (NKJV) (2 Corinthians 2:17)
The NKJV hides that which it does.
The NKJV corrupts the Word of God elimating the word "corrupt" to some kind of selling of the Word.
(KJV) "For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ."
(NKJV) "For we are not, as so many, peddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ."
