In this episode, I will answer these questions and more.
Harmonization.
When you are very familiar with the way a particular phrase sounds in a passage you, your family, or your church uses often.
Example: Ephesians 1:2 and Colosians 1:2
"Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ."
Ephesians 1:2 NASB
"To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father."
Colossians 1:2 NASB

Luke 2:33
KJV
And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.
NIV
The child’s father and mother marveled at what was said about him.
Luke 2:48
KJV
And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
NIV
When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.
1 Corinthians 9:27
KJV
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
NIV
No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.
Greek term- Hupopiazo
Isaiah 14:12
KJV
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
NIV
How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!
Jerome added Lucifer in the Latin Vulgate
Lucifer in Latin, ‘light-bringing, morning star’,
Hebrew: Helel or הֵילֵ֣ל
means "a shining one"
Revelation 22:18-19
KJV
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
NIV
I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll.
Geneva Bible
For I protest vnto euery man that heareth the words of the prophecie of this booke, If any man shall adde vnto these things, God shall adde vnto him the plagues, that are written in this booke: And if any man shall diminish of the wordes of the booke of this prophecie, God shall take away his part out of the Booke of life, and out of the holie citie, and from those things which are written in this booke.
