The Bible is not so much to be "understood" as it is to be "felt" inside you, the way poetry is.

""From a perspective of efforting to understand the Bible, the NIV is easier to read and understand, in todays modern English language.""

Maybe it takes some extra effort, but it´s worth it. And old forms of language are closer to the true meaning of words. And then, there´s that thing about left brain vs right brain, which poetic language jumps over so easily, going straight to the core of things...
