Many Bibles use italicized words to mean different things. For example, in English, we have only one word for "love". In Greek, they had 4 different words for "love" and each has a distinct meaning. So, when it was translated to English, all four words were translated as "love". But, perhaps they used italics to mean one of the Greek "loves" and non-italicized to mean another.

Look in the front of your Bible and it should give you an explanation for your specific version.

Is the KJV the correct version of the Bible?

The King James Version (KJV) is the 'correct' version if it is the version mandated or recommended by your denomination. It is not a particularly accurate version. Not only does it inherit many of the mistranslations historically taken from the Septuagint (an ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible), it adds some inadvertent translation errors of its own. The authorised version of the KJV contains many passages that include italicised words. These are intended to show where the translators intentionally did not follow the original, or where the original was not sufficently clear for them to be certain of the meaning.
