Most of the currently used Christian bibles have numerous translation errors in the Old Testament. I'm not saying that it was intentional, though it is possible a certain subconscious bias might have crept through.
Likely it was more like playing "telephone." The first translation from Hebrew was to Greek, which later went to English, and then to the King James version.
It's a quite interesting exercise to compare one of the modern Bibles to a direct Hebrew - English translation.
