a translation 

A Big Problem 
A word can be misleading if you are looking for the king of the north. There are eight different words in 52 different translations: princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1. The word prince suggests a family member unlike the other seven words which have a common meaning. Makes you wonder about words used in other parts of the bible. These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them. Reader beware.

A Translation Not Inspired 

A problem with interpretation.  50 different English translations all agree on “one of his” but the next word could be princes, commanders, officers, officials, generals, leaders, principalities, or subordinates.  A prince is a family member but the rest are not.  A problem if you are looking for the king of the north.  You have to love BibleGateway.  It is inspired.
