I ask it again
Which part of the King James Translation of the Bible
Book-
Chapter-
Verse-
does the church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints deem to be translated incorrectly?
Just saying look up the Joe Jr translation doesn't cut it.
If certain parts of the bible are not correctly translated according to the COLDS then specifically which ones are they

Why is the JS translation not a good enough answer? That is a list of verses he, the founder of Mormonism, went in and corrected from the Bible because they were not "translated correctly." So the answer to the opposite question, "When is the Bible considered translated correctly?" When you look at the JS translation.

That is a very good answer
I will probaly investigate that further.
I didn't realize that

Which part of the Sumerian tablets or the Lost Book of Enki is translated correctly?

Don't get me started on this
I am a fan of Stichen
Read Enki with the spirit brother the spirit
It is my personal opinion that the Book of Enki is more correct than the Book of Mormon

I, too have wondered about Mormonism’s claim about the Bible. The JS translation didn’t clear anything up.

Anywhere it disagrees with Mormon doctrine and anywhere the majority of theologians agree on an interpretation that disagrees with Mormon doctrine and practice.

^^^ This ^^^

Any passage that is inconvenient for the church at any given time is translated incorrectly. And yes, the standard evolves as the church's interests change.

While she was composing it, she said she was "re-writing the Lord's Prayer." As it is published at/following her death, it's called her "spiritual interpretation."

The Lord’s Prayer
(with its Spiritual Interpretation given by Mary Baker Eddy)

Our Father which art in heaven,
Our Father-Mother God, all-harmonious,

Hallowed be Thy name.
Adorable One.

Thy kingdom come.
Thy kingdom is come; Thou art ever-present.

Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Enable us to know, — as in heaven, so on earth, — God is omnipotent, supreme.

Give us this day our daily bread;
Give us grace for to-day; feed the famished affections;

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And Love is reflected in love;

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil;
And God leadeth us not into temptation, but delivereth us from sin, disease, and death.

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.
For God is infinite, all-power, all Life, Truth, Love, over all, and All.

It is ALL translated incorrectly any time anyone finds any seeming discrepancy between the Bible and the BoM or between the Bible and any inconsistent answer provided by Mormon leadership. Their pat answer to any discrepancy a person may Bible cannot be trusted because Joseph Smith said that it was only true "inasmuch as translated correctly." This allowed him to set an less challenged path to his success.

The real question is "Why doesn't the Church™ use the JST instead of the KJV?"

The answer is as non-sensical as any in the Mo-verse, because it implies that JS was wasting his time "translating", but most TBM's wouldn't realize that:

"The most reliable way to measure the accuracy of any biblical passage is not by comparing different texts, but by comparison with the Book of Mormon and modern-day revelations.
While other Bible versions may be easier to read than the King James Version, in doctrinal matters latter-day revelation supports the King James Version in preference to other English translations. All of the Presidents of the Church, beginning with the Prophet Joseph Smith, have supported the King James Version by encouraging its continued use in the Church."

----First Presidency, LDS. Inc.

It turns out that the JST is heavily plagiarized from Adam Clarke's bible commentary. Smith stole from everyone.

"A recent study from BYU 'uncovered evidence that Smith and his associates used a readily available Bible commentary while compiling a new Bible translation, or more properly a revision of the King James Bible. The commentary, Adam Clarke's famous Holy Bible, Containing the Old and New Testaments, was a mainstay for Methodist theologians and biblical scholars alike, and was one of the most widely available commentaries in the mid-1820s and 1830s in America.'"

Joe Jr was a born plaigerizer(spelling?)

It’s just a general catch all for anything that JS didn’t like in the Bible. He expected the BOM to be the primary scripture and encouraged that idea by creating doubt.

The Joseph Smith Translation is the place to look though. That's where you can see the verses that he changed. There are too many of them to just put in a list here.
