Words Then and Now

What these words mean in the King James Bible, and where you’ll still hear them today.

Thou and Ye

  • thou one person

In the King James Bible, thee, thou, thy, and thine always mean one person, and ye, you, and your more than one: a difference modern English lost. Why keep these words?
