No, it is written in the style of the era in which king Henry V111 reigned.

Yes, the NIV.

It is normal Elizabethan English. It is Tyndale to a large extent. It is not exalted language and it is modern. It is not exalted when, for example, it talks about him that pisseth against the wall. Tyndale said that he was writing for the English ploughboy.
