   The Authorized Version of 1611 (aka. "King James Version") of the Bible   
   is only subject to copyright in the UK--or perhaps the Commonwealth; I   
   forget.  In any case, in the US it's in the public domain.  The New King   
   James Version, as I understand it, basically removes archaic usages and   
   words (e.g., "you" instead of "thou," and substituting "overcome" for   
   "comprehend" in the first chapter of St. John's Gospel).
