And your point is?
Just like you can use phrases the Bible uses does not justify your faith is true apart from God's word.

My point is that using small words and phrases like "stinketh" and "sleepeth" isn't plagiarism and really isn't worth worrying about.
You're missing the point. It is not just that the same words were used but further coincidences surrounding those words.
The book of Mormon uses the word "he stinketh" once and the Bible uses it once. "Sleepeth" and "stinketh" are found together in only these two chapters: once in the book of Mormon and once in the Bible in two stories that parallel each other but are about different characters. Coincidence or plagiarizing?
Clearly Joseph did that on purpose and thought he was being cunning.
