Why are there so many Bible translations, and which is the best?

Why are there so many Bible translations? What is the best Bible translation? Is there any good reason for dozens of English Bible translations?

Don't ask which Bible is perfect. Daily ask the perfect Holy Spirit to burn GOD'S WORD on your heart, every time you read it. And never stop reading 💜✝️💜

Some acts of omitting or twisting the words are unjustifiable and most likely deliberate in NIV if you closely read and compare original manuscripts used to translate the Bible. Like Daniel 3:25 where the manuscripts clearly reads דָּמֵה לְבַר־אֱלָהִין or the son of GOD. Notice the word אֱלָהִין(ĕlôha, God) is singular meaning Daniel thus is referring to Jesus, the Son of God. Now let's see the difference between KJV and NIV

KJV: He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.

NIV: He said, “Look! I see four men walking around in the fire, unbound and unharmed, and the fourth looks like a son of the gods.

Thus NIV equals Jesus the only Son of The Heavenly Father to some random figure of mythological gods, blasphemed Jehovah by “mocking" Him as a myth. and there ain't no justification for twisting the words of prophets about Jesus Christ to discredit Him…

I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.(Isaiah 45:5–6)
