Biblens slaraffenland
Af Emil Kirkegaard
Biblen og lidt af hvert:
Da biblen er blevet fejloversat i den danske version (anno 1992) , bruges KJV, som er kendt for at være en meget direkte oversættelse.
Opdatering 12-12-2007:
Jeg har modtaget kritik af denne artikel der lyder på, at jeg foretager en selektiv bevisførelse ved at benytte KJV frem for andre. I andre oversættelser bruges der ikke ordet ‘unicorn’ men ‘wild ox’ eller lign.
Det er korrekt at i andre oversættelser, bruges der andre ord. Jeg har valgt at fokusere på KJV fordi, at den er den foretrukne bibel af fundamentalisterne, som går meget op i en ordret forståelse af biblen. De foretrækker selv at bruge KJV, og der findes endda kirker som ikke vil bruge andet.

Guds profet bliver mobbet og derfor dræber gud 42 drenge vha. en to bjørne:
23And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
24And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
“By the rivers of Babylon” kommer faktisk fra biblen, omend at de glemte sidste del af verset:
9Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
