KJV or Douay-Rheims. Preferably one that was printed more than 50 years ago (They make small changes with each new printing, partially to avoid fees to previous publishers and partially for subversion).

If you like the presentation style of that first video this is a great short vid as well (not related to bible versions but still good)

I read KJV. I draws from a smaller group of texts but IMO it's the most tuned into the english speaking brain.
