  • A KJV baseia-se no Textus Receptus para o seu Novo Testamento, enquanto a TNM usa o texto de Westcott e Hort, levando a diferenças em certos versículos.

  • A KJV normalmente usa “SENHOR” ou “DEUS” para o nome de Deus no Antigo Testamento, enquanto a TNM usa “Jeová” extensivamente e, de forma controversa, insere-o no Novo Testamento, refletindo doutrinas divergentes sobre Jesus Cristo.
