The following is a leaf from the King James Version (aka Authorised Version) published in 1611. It covers I Samuel 22.15-24.8.
Problems of the earlier English bibles used in the Church of England, namely, the Great Bible and the Bishops' Bible, had been pointed out, and preparation of a new English version was proposed at the Hampton Court Conference in 1604. King James I commissioned specialists to prepare a new English version based on the bible in the original languages (i.e. Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and Latin). The Bishops' Bible was used as the primary guide for the translators, so that names and phrases familiar to the readers/listeners would be retained. It took about seven years for 47 translators to complete the task.
The King James Version became the only standard bible in the Church of England, and kept being reprinted. When reprinting, printers often introduced minor changes in punctuation, capitalisation, spelling, grammar, etc. in order to keep up with changing practices. Because of all these changes as well as misprints, a wide variety of King James Version had come into existence by the mid-eighteenth century. So both at the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, people began to prepare an updated standard edition. The Cambridge edition came out first in 1760 and was reprinted in 1762, but it was superseded by the Oxford edition published in 1769, and this became the standard text of the King James Version.
