Is there any other Bible translation that is as important to its respective language as the KJV is to English? Does any other translation in another language compare?
>>18126771The Dutch Statenbijbel and the German Lutherbibwl are considered pretty important to their respective languages.
>>18126771>Is there any other Bible translation that is as important to its respective language as the KJV is to English? Yes, Luther's Bible. If it's not superior to the KJV (in terms of impact on the language), it's at the very least its equivalent.>Does any other translation in another language compare?Apart the KJV and Luther every Scandinavian translation pretty much reshaped their respective languages. The guy who translated the finnish bible is known as the father of literary finnish. Statenvertaling in the Dutch language, which took inspiration from the KJV, the 1933 Afrikaans Bible that buffed Afrikaans into a language of its own, the Czech Protestant translation and the Hungarian translation deserve honorable mentions.Global reach = KJVNational depth = Luther

>>18126771One that immediately comes to mind is the Vulgate with respect to Latin. Of course Latin is a dead language now but you get it.
