Here's an example of what you can do with a Bible if you use inspiration:
Lot is talking to the Sodomites who want to get to know his angelic
visitors better.

King James version, Genesis 19:8.  Behold now, I have two daughters which
have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye
to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; ...

Inspired version (from RLDS church), Genesis 19:13.  And Lot said, Behold
now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you,
plead with my brethren that I may not bring them out unto you; and ye shall
not do to them as seemeth good in your eyes; ...

This demonstrates clearly the advantage of using inspiration: all the
scholarship in the world wouldn't have deduced the latter from the
surviving originals. :-)
