Which Bible versions exist today predating King James Version?

The KJV was not a revelation from a vacuum — it was the political consolidation of at least seven major prior English Bible traditions, several of which carried radically different theological and political emphases the Crown wanted erased. Mauro Biglino and Brian Muraresku have independently noted that translation choices across these versions systematically filtered specific Hebrew and Greek terms in ways that shaped Western theology for centuries. The suppressed lineage matters enormously.
