"Lightening and thunder come together" for humans in the 21st century yes. But this was not always the case, which is why I suppose different translations are used.
No, I don't think you can indiscriminately use either, as I do not know how lightning can praise anything as it does not make any noise and I do not know of thunder ever having punished/killed anyone as there is no electricity, just noise.

This noise is no meek lamb. Lightening is electromagnetic energy but the thunder is mechanical energy.
Even a meager instrument like supersonic jet created by us delivers enough of this mechanical energy that windows are shattered kilometers away. The thunder too has shattering effects there are examples of roof collapse because of striking of ligthening and thunder.

And the praise by lightening should not be too difficult to understand. People do burst fire crackers to show joy. Even fire works are used in celebrations.
But we have already established that this book is not considered to be an authentic Koran due to its lack of the original Arabic.
I just wanted to make sure I get the details correct as there seems to be some disagreement here over the treatment of such text, when it is Koran-like or resembling the Koran. From our point of view this is not a significant query. My suggestion will be to focus on finding out whether there is God Almighty behind this or not. That is where we Muslims might be of some help. Make the best use of our abilities.
