You can say what you want about how to interpret the Bible, but in the end I have trust in the Holy Spirit and put my bets on an interpretation which my heart leads me to.
For example, words are notoriously ambiguous. No two people have the exact same background which gives meaning to them for each and every word in the dictionary.
Then we have the translation problems. Is the translator working through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit? Is the translator working from a document which contains God's actual message, God's truth?
But all that aside, my personal opinion is that a person who comes to the Bible in good faith and asking for God's guidance will come away with God's truth no matter how slip-shod the translation.
