Calamity fits well with the situation surrounding the verse and evil doesn't fit at all according to the rest of the scriptures.
Were you not taught that words with several meaning should be considered by the situation, was basic when I was in school.

Actually, the surrounding verses are concerned with righteousness and salvation, so God claiming to commit moral evil fits better than God claiming responsibility for moral evil.
But you (deliberately, I think) didn't address my chief point which is that translation should not matter. God could have easily made the meaning of the Bible in toto clear to everyone. Why didn't he?

Seems the Christians have no trouble understanding, could it be we're more intelligent.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
