Why Do Modern New Testament Translations Omit Verses Printed in the King James Version?
King James Version verses are missing from modern translations of the New Testament, including the New International Version, sometimes joked about as the Not Inspired Version. More than a dozen verses are gone.
Hundreds more manuscripts have been found since the translation, and some passages were added later by someone other than the author. Matthew 17 skips verse 21, with a footnote saying some ancient manuscripts add the verse. About 16 passages in the New Testament have been taken out.
