(10) I took the little scroll from the hand of the angel and ate it. The taste was as sweet as honey, but my stomach turned sour. (11) Then some voices said, "Keep on telling what will happen to the people of many nations, races, and languages, and also to kings."

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
