First of all, the word of God was given to the Prophets and Apostles from God Almighty. The Great I Am. For the old Testament these were originally written in the pre-exilic Hebrew language and some in the Aramaic. These are also called the Torah.
The new Testament was written in the Greek language and these are the Gospels of Jesus Christ. It was a long hard road before we were able to get the Word of God into the language of the people. Many were martyred by the corrupted polytheistic/Pantheistic church governments, before we finally did.
Basic order of the translations
*Hebrew and Aramaic writings.
2000 B.C.- 600 B.C.
*Septuagint- the Old Testament translated into the Greek language in 100-200 B.C.
*Greek letters of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 45-96 A.D.
Christianity came to Britain before the year 200 A.D. long before, the catholic church took over and merged with the Christians. Jesus’s uncle, Joseph of Aremathia (which is the disciple Jesus loved, who raced St. Peter to the tomb.) and Jesus’s mother Mary came to Brittan shortly after Jesus had left to be with the Father. Thus, bringing Christianity to Brittan within the 1st century.

Farrar Fenton 1850-1900

Goodspeed 1935 Translated from the Westcot & Hort text (English Revised Edition)
Many Saints were martyred in the process of translating the word of God into the language of the people.
There has now been many translations made in just the 1900's alone. One must now be careful when choosing a modern edition of the Bible. This is because of the anti-Christ's buying up many of the publishing companies and printing companies, especially after 1911. This was done to corrupt and to stop the truth of God from getting to the people. Thus, leading the sheep astray from that narrow gate.
The KJV is a good choice, maybe not the only choice, but with its 54 translators. Translating from the original Hebrew & Greek text and by using the translations of the outstanding scholars of the Wycliffe, Tyndale, Coverdale, Geneva, and the Bishops Bible. It seems that, they have combined the best of the best.
I pray you will awake and resist evils that are forced upon us, before greater Tribulation is dropped upon us as well. Don't be caught like a thief in the night, keep your lamps oiled and trimmed, have your sword and have a room that you can enter into as if it were a short time. Most of all read God’s Word And repent!
Repent now and be Baptized!
