De King James Version (KJV) van de Bijbel is een Engelse Bijbelvertaling uit 1611, gepubliceerd op last van koning Jacobus I van Engeland. Deze versie van de Bijbel was het werk van 54 geleerden en geestelijken, die meer dan zeven jaar samenwerkten in subcommissies van negen personen, de zogenoemde 'companies'. De vertalers grepen ook terug op de oorspronkelijke Hebreeuwse, Griekse en Aramese teksten.
