Are you unaware of the fact that the makers of the KJV borrowed a good number of renderings approved by a Jesuit Gregory Martin in his 1582 Roman Catholic Rheims New Testament?
The makers of the KJV consulted or made use of a Greek text edited by a Roman Catholic [Erasmus] and dedicated to a pope and praised or recommended by that pope.
The later revisor or revisors of the Roman Catholic Douay-Rheims Bible in the 1700's borrowed many renderings from the KJV and making it more like the KJV, showing Roman Catholic approval of those KJV renderings.
I bet they didnt include all of these verses:
Ezk 8:13-14
13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.
14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the Lord 's house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
Jer 7:18
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
Jer 44:25-26
25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her:ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.
26 Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord God liveth.
1Ti 4:1-3
Chapter 4
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
