these were in the king james at one time in 1611, but removed by the papacy

2 Esdras (Vulgate 4 Esdras)
Tobit
Judith ("Judeth" in Geneva)
Rest of Esther (Vulgate Esther 10:4 - 16:24)
Wisdom
Ecclesiasticus (also known as Sirach)
Baruch and the Epistle of Jeremy ("Jeremiah" in Geneva) (all part of Vulgate Baruch)

Story of Susanna (Vulgate Daniel 13)
The Idol Bel and the Dragon (Vulgate Daniel 14)
Prayer of Manasseh

for instance..

The Prayer of Azariah and Song of the Three Holy Children: Daniel 3:24-90 (in the Greek Translation) are removed from the Protestant canon after verse 23 (v. 24 becomes v. 91), but have now been put back in the American bible

the KJV was the standard version set in 17 century

there are over 900 Bible translations available in English today
so which one do we trust?
if in god we trust
