Could it be that they want Harry to know a specific version because
they know all about Voldemort tapping into Harry's thoughts? And
then, they chose what information they can (or want to) leak to
Voldemort and his DE's.

In the chapter called The Lost Prophecy, Dumbledore explains about
why he didn't Tell All in each of the previous 4 years, and then he
goes on to explain about the prophecy and its meaning, and then he
says that Harry posseses (spelling?) something that Voldemort will
never understand - "In the end, it mattered not that you could not
close your mind. It was your heart that saved you." And that is
precisely the same thing that he told Harry at the end of the first
year. He said to Harry nothing that Harry couldn't have figured out
on his own, or that he hadn't said to Harry before.
His speech is long (not to mention long-winded), but Dumbledore still
doesn't tell Harry what the weapon actually is.

"In the end, it mattered not that you could not close your mind. It
was your heart that saved you."
After Lord thingy "fled" (thought Harry), Tom R possesed Harry's
Brain and asked Albus to kill the boy. Harry asks for the end the
pain, and for to be reunited with Sirius. And that last part comes
from the Heart, and then the possesion stops...
