Is it a dangerous sin?

I am learning Greek.

Since I enjoy reading the Bible I wanted to use the TGVD Greek Bible. From what have researched the Greek language only has 4 Bible versions.

I was planning on practicing my Greek writing by writing the Bible verses on a piece of paper and reading them.

But I am not allowed to do that because 1. I am not a scribe 2. I don't know if TGVD is the originals out of the four versions. 3. Revelation warns of adding and taking away, so if I mess up and miss a word then I end up doing the eternal sin probably?

So the bottom line is, are we not allowed to write down Bible verses, since we are not scribes, regardless if we use it for self-study?

Maybe I am overcomplicating this.

The warnings in scripture of adding to or taking away from scripture is for the purposes of deception by the person doing it. Making a mistake and not writing the complete verse is not the same thing.

One is trying to pervert and change God's word to deceive people, the other is a simple error. If God destroyed us even when we made a simple unintentional error, I wouldn't be here to write this comment, trust me.
