William Tyndale (c 1491-1536) made the first Protestant translation of the Bible into English. In about 1536, he was executed by King Henry VIII for his work. However, in 1538, after long opposing the use of English Bibles, King Henry VIII ordered that every church in the realm have a Bible translated into English. Henry's Great Bible was largely Tyndale's translation, disguised as from "Thomas Matthew" to avoid embarrassment over Tyndale's execution.
No, King James was the English king who had the bible translated from latin to english... hence, the King James' version of the bible.
The reign of King James came during a time of severe religious conflict in England between the Catholic and Anglican churches. Many people wanted to be able to read the Bible for themselves. Unfortunately all the bible in use at that time were written in Latin, and few people knew how to read Latin other than the priests and a few other scholars. King James ordered that the bible should be translated into English so that more people would be able to read and understand the bible.

The King James Version Bible is a translation of the Bible which originated in 1611, King James of England ordered it to be translated from the Hebrew Bible. He set very strict rules to be followed and many men to do the work in order to insure it was translated right. It was then translated into a more modern form of English in 1769 by the University of Oxford. Which is the King James version Bible we have today. It is the most accurate Bible you can find, and the ONLY one I will recommend.
King James of England seperated from the Catholic Church and made his own copy of the Bible called The King James Version in 1611. If you're talking about the kings of Israel and Judah...you can find that in any standard Bible.
