Among the recovered texts, which are all in Greek, is Nahum 1:5–6, which says: "The mountains quake because of Him, And the hills melt. The earth heaves before Him, The world and all that dwell therein. Who can stand before His wrath? Who can resist His fury? His anger pours out like fire, and rocks are shattered because of Him."
The authority said these words differ slightly from other Bible versions, shedding a rare light on how biblical text changed over time from its earliest form.

NIV:
The mountains quake before him
and the hills melt away.
The earth trembles at his presence,
the world and all who live in it.
6 Who can withstand his indignation?
Who can endure his fierce anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire;
the rocks are shatteredbefore him.
All the bullshit about, someone in Rome wrote the Bible years and years after the fact, is destroyed by the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Bible was written just when it said it was and by whom...
That basket is in better shape than some of Great Gram's in the attic! Remarkable!
I don't know how they make heads or tails of those little pieces of parchment, but good on them!
That NBC article doesn't say anything about the text found. Is there another article you could link? Thanks.

No, it does not. See above posts. Identical in content. Since Greek is the most perfect language we have, there’s always variations on words because it’s not a word to word translation. But the content is identical.

not exactly as you state but in a manner of a political document disguised as a religion.
they spent just under 100 years writing the christian bible in the 4th century - . Christianity in the 4th century was dominated in its early stage by Constantine the great and the First Council of Nicaea of 325, which was the beginning of the period of the First seven Ecumenical Councils (325–787), and in its late stage by the Edict of Thessalonica of 380, which made Nicene Christianity the state church of the Roman Empire. .
and named their "religion" as the state church of the roman empire.
and more so has an uninterrupted history of persecution and victimization of the innocent - beginning with the crucifixion of a religious itinerant in the 1st century. without adjudication for the perpetrators of the crime to this day.

no, forgeries and fallacies found on nearly every page of the christian bible. . Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. .
the above is a forgery -
there are no original documents preserved responsible for the "compiling" claimed by christians and nothing preserved or physically recorded by the 1st century religious itinerant themselves nor were those that crucified them ever brought to justice and in fact the christian bible is written by the very criminals that committed the crime. as the uninterrupted history of that book through the centuries attests by its endless persecution and victimization of the innocent.

Translations are an entire separate ball of wax because of languages being complex.
“First, there is a text-critical issue.[3]Does the original text of Luke 2:14read εὐδοκίας (“of good pleasure,” genitive case) or εὐδοκία (“good will,” nominative case)? In Greek, the difference is only a single letter, a final sigma (ς). A look at the oldest and most reliable manuscripts makes clear that all three major codices—Sinaiticus (א), Alexandrinus (A), and Vaticanus (B)—point to εὐδοκίας as the original wording. Interestingly, in both Sinaiticus and Vaticanus, later correctors erased the final sigma to change the harder genitive to the easier nominative reading which subsequently found its way into many Byzantine manuscripts and writings by the Church Fathers. Later still, the King James Version based its rendering of Luke 2:14 on this textual tradition, issuing in the translation, “on earth peace, good will toward men.”
