The KJV renders 3 different Hebrew and Greek words as “sabbath”

What it means

the Sabbath (i.e. Shabbath), or day of weekly repose from secular avocations (also the observance or institution itself); by extension, a se'nnight, i.e. the interval between two Sabbaths; likewise the plural in all the above applications

of Hebrew origin (H07676);

How the KJV renders it

sabbath, week

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.

sabbath
also renders mishbâth (H4868), shabbâthôwn (H7677)
week
also renders shâbûwaʻ (H7620)
