The KJV is also not the best or most accurate translation and it’s archaic language can be another barrier to understanding.
Whatever its literary merits it is not the best translation to use in discussions about the Bible - it’s one of the worst.
And trying to use the KJV as a literary model got us the Book of Mormon. Which is not a masterpiece of literature by any standards.

You seem to have no problem making things up. Which you should not be doing in discussions here.
