Where is Roth?

There always has to be a level of interpretation when translating though. It's unavoidable because some words mean certain things depending on the context, so it's up to the translator to decipher that context and translate accordingly. There will never be a text that is void of bias. If there was, it would be misinterpreted by those reading it anyway because certain words are meant to be understood certain ways depending once again on context and the intended meaning of the original author. And both of those things you cannot ascertain from the text alone without any additional knowledge of cultural background and language, hence the limitation of translations and holding to them in a "sola scriptura" sense (which is an oxy-moron most of the time anyway).
