How do theists justify the translations of the scriptures?

RE: How do theists justify the translations of the scriptures?
(September 4, 2019 at 2:27 pm)Macoleco Wrote: The Bible, or any other holy book, is a translation of scriptures written thousands of years ago, and even in different tongues.

How can theists confirm these translations are 100%, or even somewhat, accurate?

One would think that if God wants to deliver such an important message, it would be translation and time proof. But I am sure that the Bible is different even in modern bibles of different languages, and even of the same language.

Now a days you can compare multiple readings of the same verse, look up the words themselves in their original language, read criticism of certain interpretation etc...
