Not exactly! Consider these:

Deuteronomy 26:1 And it shall be when thou art come in vnto the land which the Lord giueth thee for an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein:
Deuteronomy 26:1 And it shall be, when thou art come in unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein;

Joshua 13:29 And Moses gaue inheritance vnto the halfe tribe of Manasseh: and this was the possession of the halfe tribe of Manasseh, by their families.
Joshua 13:29 And Moses gave inheritance unto the half tribe of Manasseh: and this was the possession of the half tribe of the children of Manasseh by their families.

There are many more like this. Too often I have endured the argument that "if one word was added to or taken away from the word of God then God wasn't big enough to preserve his word" or some such variant.

Please do not misunderstand. My goal is to build peoples faith in the King James Bible, but to do so we must be accurate.
