If what you are saying were true, it would directly discredit Paul's words at 2 Timothy 3:16: "All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight. . ."
Were the bible not inspired, we would be free to set standards for ourselves, exactly what Satan promised Adam and Eve.
This is not offered in proof of the bible but as reason for my disbelief.
Thanks for the welcome, can you please clarify what you are trying to say ?
Also why did you choose that translation out of these, or does it not matter ? :
