In a manner of speaking, it is a translation, but as with any translation done, error creeps in. Then when you take that original word and then re-translate it again and again over the space of two thousand years then what you have at the end of it deviates from the original words.
When you look at the original word translated into Hebrew, then the King James version, and all versions since. At each time, slight alterations from man creep in, what one translator meant might not be picked up by another or misinterpreted.
At the end of the day, it all boils down to how these words are interpreted, like any book, everyone takes away something different from it.
