I have no problem with reading the 1611, version. It sometimes takes a little thought, but should we not think about the words. I am not a King James only person but having read it several times it is a very good translation, not a transliteration like many other works.
I don't like Critical Text people conflating the Textus Receptus issue with the King James Only issue. They are not the same issue. I do not agree with the idea that the process of textual transmission is a process in which the text naturally grows larger. Like Gordon Clark, I believe that the tendency of scribal errors is to shrink the text not to expand it. I saw that many years ago with my own scribal errors in my note card research.
This not an accurate description of the textus receptus. The received text is a compilation of over 5,000 ancient manuscripts. If anyone wants a nutshell of the true history of the received text (and the Bible in general), watch the documentary "A Lamp In The Dark". They also provide resources that you can check to verify the information given in the film.
Thank you.

I tried reading the King James Bible but the words are difficult to understand.
Keep reading, studying, & cross referencing! Good Bible✝️📖🙏👍
Anything worth having might seem a little difficult
