There was only one James I of Britain. He suppressed any religion which was not Protestant. He particularly suppressed the Catholics following the Gunpowder Plot in which Guy Fawkes attempted to blow up Parliament.

What is the translation of the bible in the King James version for protestants?
I don't understand what the question is supposed to mean. James himself was, as required by English law, Protestant, and the translation that came to be known by his name was intended for use by the Church of England (and, I suppose, the Scottish kirk... also not Roman Catholic... as well) so the phrase "King James Version for Protestants" is somewhat redundant. Also, the "King James Version" is a particular translation; so "what is the translation in the King James Version" is a question that essentially answers itself.
