The KJV renders 14 different Hebrew and Greek words as “self”
What it means
him- (her-, it-, them-, also (in conjunction with the personal pronoun of the other persons) my-, thy-, our-, your-) self (selves), etc.

How the KJV renders it
alone, her own, self, himself, his, itself, one another, our own, their own, own selves, them, they, thyself, you, your own, own conceits, selves
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
