It is very important to translate the Bible correctly.  As it is written, "I warn everyone who hears the prophetic words in this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words in this prophetic book, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city described in this book" (Revelation 22, 18-19).  See also Deuteronomy 4:2 (Conservative Bible): "Do not add to the word that I command you, and do not subtract from it, so that you may keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I command you."
