does anyone know where I can find a Japanese Bible (KJV)? I've been looking all night and haven't found one... downloadable or otherwise doesn't matter... It would be a major help if anyone knew where!

Edit:
Here is another site, though it says the ‘Living Bible’ (I don’t know much about that translation) I thought I would list it anyway.

The Gideons also make a dual language Japanese/English bible. My group gave some out while we were in Japan last November. I believe the english was NKJV tho. I don't believe the Japanese verson would be called KJV however. If I can get a link to it I will, but for now know that yes they do make them. It might have been New Testamant only tho. :x

....That's peculiar... Maybe they have a desire to show how many languages they know?... I'm joking...

nono... The Living "translation" (It's not really a translation) is the no.1 thing we're trying to avoid... KJV is what we thirst for.

You can get a KJV in JAPANESE?! That seems impossible. . . (because the language in the KJV is obselete in English so I imagine it would be REALLY hard to tranlsate.)

I once had a Korean version of KJV, so I don't think finding one in Japanese is much harder to find.
I suggest you to start in one of those Asian bookshops, like Kinokuniya or however they're spelled.
