Our Non Copyrighted 1611 KJV Free Original Bible is freely available for anyone to access, use, and share without the need for permission or payment. Unlike copyrighted material, which may be subject to complex legal restrictions, our non copyrighted Bible is freely available, providing legal certainty for users. Individuals can use and share non copyrighted material without fear of infringing on intellectual property rights or facing legal consequences. Unlike our Bible, many modern Bible translations are copyrighted, that without express written permission of the publisher, you cannot quote the Bible. If you do, you are committing copyright infringement, leading to penalties for up to 5 years imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, or both, as seen below.

1852. Copyright Infringement — Penalties — 17 U.S.C. 506(a) And 18 U.S.C 2319: Penalties to be applied in cases of criminal copyright infringement (i.e., violations of 17 U.S.C. § 506(a)), are set forth at 18 U.S.C. § 2319. Congress has increased these penalties substantially in recent years, and has broadened the scope of behaviors to which they can apply. Statutory penalties are found at 18 U.S.C. § 2319. A defendant, convicted for the first time of violating 17 U.S.C. § 506(a) by the unauthorized reproduction or distribution, during any 180-day period, of at least 10 copies or phonorecords, or 1 or more copyrighted works, with a retail value of more than $2,500 can be imprisoned for up to 5 years and fined up to $250,000, or both. 18 U.S.C. §§ 2319(b), 3571(b)(3). Defendants who have previously been convicted of criminal copyright infringement under 18 U.S.C. § 2319(b)(1) may be sentenced to a maximum of 10 years imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, or both. Finally, a defendant is guilty of a misdemeanor violation if he violated rights other than those of reproduction or distribution, or has reproduced or distributed less than the requisite number of copies, or if the retail value of the copies reproduced or distributed did not meet the statutory minimum, or if other elements of 17 U.S.C. § 506(a) are not satisfied. Misdemeanants can be sentenced a maximum of one year and can be fined a maximum of $100,000. See 18 U.S.C. §§ 2319(b)(3), 3571(b)(5).
