How do theists justify the translations of the scriptures?

[John 6IX Breezy]

Generally speaking, Christians do nothing of the kind.

Perhaps in your experience, or your particular church, they didn't (assuming you're ex-Christian). I think my statement is particularly true in this day and age where Christians use Bible apps and online Bibles over physical copies. A lot of these services already provide you with interlinear comparisons across translations, as well as the Greek and Hebrew texts, concordances, and lexicons.

Take for example: https://biblehub.com

I've met a few old school pastors that purchase physical copies of different translations. I think that's less common these days. I personally own the wycliff bible, tyndale bible, and Geneva bible, though I do so more for the sake of collection.

EDIT: Not to mention that a lot of denominations trace their origins to European reformers that themselves aided in translating the bible, or knew how to speak Greek or even Latin, such as Luther or Calvin. I think Protestants in general tend to come from a very translation-oriented, look-it-up-for-yourself, tradition. Catholics perhaps not as much.
