Isaiah 14:12
KJV highlighted words in RED have been changed
in the NIV to impart an entirely different meaning.
 
 

NIV

 

KJV

14:12  How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!

 

14:12  How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

 

In verse 12 above the NIV has removed the reference to Lucifer so as to hide the fact that he is a fallen angel.  "O Lucifer" has been changed to "O morning star". Now the "fallen angel" no longer is Lucifer -- since his name has been removed -- now according to Isaiah 14:12 of the NIV the "fallen angel" is supposed to be the "morning star".  If we say we are not sure what the "morning star" is all about we should turn to Rev. 22:16 (see below). There we find to our surprise that the "morning star" is Jesus.

This is a real develish concoction in the NIV
     Isa. 14:12 says                               Rev. 22:16 says
fallen angel = morning star                  morning star = Jesus

In other words, according to the NIV Jesus is the one who fell from heaven, who was cast down to earth - what blasphemy concerning the Son of the Most High :
fallen angel = morning star = Jesus  (NIV)
However the Word of God says (KJV)
fallen angel = son of the morning = Lucifer

Could it be that someone on the NIV translation committee had all traces of Lucifer removed and even inserted misleading information (O morning star) in order to protect the New Age god? According to the NIV "Lucifer" doesn't exist, he simply cannot be found in the NIV bible.  But all bibles are in agreement with regard to Rev.22:16, they all say the same in that verse, namely that Jesus is the morning star.  Therefore the one who in Isaiah 14:12 has fallen from heaven (Lucifer) cannot possibly also be the morning star. That doesn't seem to matter to certain internet web sites and other ungodly publications, which are perpetuating the idea that morning star is a suitable alias for Lucifer, the one cast out from heaven, and by default are advocating the concept of two morning stars, one opposing the other, a real confusion indeed.


 

NIV Rev. 22:16   I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you [a] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.

 

KJV Rev. 22:16   I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, [and] the bright and morning star.
