Almost every translation has something different to offer, every single one is a translation, not the original. No translation of the original can be perfect.
It seems to me that even the beautiful, wonderful KJV is leading people astray if they believe it is perfect. It reflects the antisemitism that was prevalent in the 1600's.

Well stop and think upon this statement for a minute.
1. Is one of Satan's goals to sow division among Christians? ABSOLUTELY.
2. Is another of Satan's goals to sow spiritual confusion? ABSOLUTELY.
3. Is another of Satan's goals to cast doubt on the words of God? ABSOLUTELY.
4. Is another of Satan's goals to attack the doctrine of the divine preservation of the Word of God? ABSOLUTELY.
5. Is another of Satan's goals to attack the doctrine of Christ? ABSOLUTELY.
So when you add this all up and apply it to modern bible versions, you suddenly realize that the whole point of these versions is to achieve the goals of Satan (with great subtlety of course).

Au contraire, you and others like you by taking the KJV only/"other versions are corrupted" actually seed confusion in the Christian community, therefore doing the work of the adversary.
Unfortunately you are so far down the KJV only rabbit hole that a team of ferrets couldn't flush you out of it.

Nehemiah6 is only trying to get people to realize that "it really is true" that Satan is doing his absolute best to abrogate the Word of God in any way he can.
He is not "sowing division, spiritual confusion, and doubt"; he is trying to do the exact opposite - by pointing out the division/confusion/doubt that Satan has already sown.
It is a fact. And, many have fallen for it - "hook, line, and sinker"...

kjv onlyism is one of his greatest triumphs,
are you going to fall for it to

By claiming the KJV is the only bible and all others are the works of satan he is doing the work of satan.
Trying to do the exact opposite by doing the exact opposite.
Many have fallen for the KJV only "hook, line and sinker" and it appears by defending this "stance" you is one of them.

Satan's greatest "triumph" in the realm of things having to do with the Word of God is --- the Alexandrian/Wescott-Hort manuscripts.
And, therefore, all of the bible translations that came from those manuscripts. They are all corrupt. Because, those manuscripts are corrupt.
Why is this so hard for people to understand?

I am not against any "good-and-proper" translation that comes from good source manuscripts. I am against any-and-all others.
I am only 'KJV-only' in the sense that I firmly believe that there has not been a "good-and-proper" English translation of the Bible - from good source manuscripts - since the KJV.
There are a few that were before it.

I know of no evidence to the contrary; on-the-contrary, the matter-of-proof that seems to be evident in all of my knowledge-and-experience with it - with regard to Truth - is that - nothing ever came out of Alexandria, Egypt that was worth anything. In the context of Truth, with regard to the topic of this thread - Alexandria, Egypt is the cornerstone of all-that-is-a-lie.
In the context of Truth, with regard to the topic of this thread - Alexandria, Egypt is the "seat of Satan" - from which all matter of lies spew forth...

The holy spirit uses the word, it does not pull truth out of thin air. It helps us judge the word.
If we believe that word comes from translations of what God told man, then we are not receiving the true word. We are to search every single translation for the truth of God. Often that means going back to the Hebrew, the start of the words God used to speak to us. Even the greek is a translation of that word, for the old testament is the foundation that the new testament fulfilled.
