Please don't waste your time and brain power reading the NIV translation or any of the many other popular modern English versions based on the seriously faulty Alexandrian Greek text. There are many numerous missing versus and hundreds of butchered verses, and thousands of serious outright errors. The Alexandrian text is based primarily on the fourth Century Vaticanus Greek text that was "lost" in the Vatican for over 1400 years! Wow, that why the pages are in such good condition. Besides being the oldest complete New Testament in existence, it is also the worst!
The New King James translation is based on the Majority Greek text. It and and Peshitta are usually in close agreement!
