KJV-1611

4 Charitie suffereth long, and is kinde: charitie enuieth not: charitie vaunteth not it selfe, is not puffed vp,
5 Doeth not behaue it selfe vnseemly, seeketh not her owne, is not easily prouoked, thinketh no euill,
6 Reioyceth not in iniquitie, but reioyceth in the trueth:
7 Beareth all things, beleeueth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

KJV

4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

KJV-ENG

4 Charity suffers long, and is kind; charity envies not; charity vaunts not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil;
6 Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7 Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

The trusted King James Version... in modern English

In 1611 King James of England authorized the production of the Holy Bible. Over the next one hundred and fifty years English spelling simplified, and in 1769 the King James Version reflected those changes.

Now, more than two hundred and fifty years later, the King James Bible has again received spelling updates, removing the distractions 
of endings like "-edst" and "-eth", yet keeping its words and grammar.

commeth (KJV-1611)  to  cometh (KJV)  to  comes (KJV-ENG)
  

  

  

What are the KJV-ENG and the KJV-USA?
Both the KJV-ENG and the KJV-USA are the same trusted King James Version of 1769 but with spelling corrections, like "acknowledgedst" to "acknowledged" and "spued" to "spewed". Additionally, the KJV-USA also updates other KJV words to American English like "valour" to "valor" and "worshipper" to "worshiper".
   

Word Changes - The Fewer The Better
In order to maintain integrity with the King James Version most words have not been changed: whence, henceforth, conversation, aright and many others are not altered. What is changed are words like "abhorreth" to "abhors", "begettest" to "beget", "behoved" to "behooved", and "such an one" to "such a one".
