Of all the typographical errors in the first two editions of the New Cambridge Paragraph Bible, only one is substantial. Leviticus 11:35 is the only place where words of the KJV are missing from the printed text.
The first two lines of this verse are identical in every edition. After that, however, things begin to go wrong in the Cambridge First edition (2005) and the Penguin Classics edition (2006). The 2005 edition omits the rest of the text. The 2006 edition begins to correct this mistake, but (surprisingly) only adds the last three words of the verse - still omitting nine other words. The entire verse is not published in the NCPB until 2011.
Here is how these three editions print Leviticus 11:35:
2005 Cambridge First edition
35 And everything whereupon any part of their carcase falleth
shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be
2006 Penguin Classics edition
35 And everything whereupon any part of their carcase falleth
shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be
unclean unto you.
2011 Cambridge Revised edition
35 And everything whereupon any part of their carcase falleth
shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be
broken down: for they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
