  Quran has only one Arabic version and that is included in most
  reliable translations. Bible (and Torah) have been translated many
  times into many other languages and from those other languages into
  many other languages and ... The point is (if you understand the
  translation process and its problems) that new interpretations for
  many concepts changed from one translation to other. There are so
  many Christians who do not trust King James version and many other.
  This observation itself answers your question.
