Why do Roman Catholicks hate the King James Bible?

Uh...

But what is the true original Hebrew/ Greek language Bible?

It's written for peasants. The whole point of Latin was to preserve the benefits of clergy and avoid personal interpretation.
Most of those Catholics are dead for about three hundred years though. Most Catholic schools and universities use KJV for English literature because it's a major work which sets the vernacular for the past four hundred years. It'd be like trying to teach modern Chinese without Cao Xueqin.

What does Desu Desu mean? I keep seeing it on here.

lurk moar

The Tanakh and the Koine Greek New Testament, plus all the apocryphal books depending on your denomination.

which Greek? the Nestle aland or Textus Receptus?

for me it's the RSV-2CE

Whatever Pope Innocent ratified, but seriously if you're trying to make a point I get it, but it's best to read and understand the bible in a holistic way than just arbitrarily trying to stick with one manuscript.

I just want a perfect Bible

The Bible is the work of men. It will never be perfect. It's just the best we have to understand God through

latin vulgate is the perfect catholic bible, after that douay-rheims. ignore the rest

Not gonna get one dude, I'm sorry.

Isn't God perfect? why can't he give me a copy of his book in my language? He speaks English too right?

God didn't write the Bible

learn greek, aramaic and hebrew and read original. alternatively learn latin and read the vulgate

Divinely-inspired not divinely written, the Bible isn't God's personally written book, it is his Church's creation (assuming you believeof course). Who the fuck knows about specific reasons why x and why not y, we just have to deal with what we have.

is the Latin vulgate 100% perfect?

no, the original languages will be better but latin vulgate is the best if you want the bible in ONE language only. other good translations are douay-rheims and if you know spanish, then read torres amat. avoid KJV protestant bible.

i recommend checking out Ethiopian bible as well since it has the most books out of all biblical canons. only do this after reading the entirety of the catholic canon (i recommend because it has protestant canon and then a half dozen or so books more)

Why is KJV bad tho? do not understand.

Every single word of the KJV is perfect.

>KJV chooses aesthetics over meaning.
>he can't read Greek

No, it doesn't. In fact it is faithful down to peculariar tense (Mark often uses present tense), and puts inserted words in italics, two features no other translation is scrupulous enough to do

aesthetically it's okay; historically it's important, but generally the KJV excludes many books that are historically a part of the catholic canon, also there are changes in the text that some view as important to doctrine

aesthetics over meaning is based

imagine thinking that the aesthetics of douay-rheims aren't equal or better than KJV lmao and faithful to the latin vulgate (which is peak aesthetics if you have brains to learn latin)

They don't

whats it mean! I want to know!

>KJV excludes many books that are historically part of the catholic user
KJV was translated to include the apocrypha. As usual this is an RC cope do divert from superior Anglican a e s t h e t i c s

Douay Rheims is far worse than KJV aesthetically. Catholic bias will never admit this, but the KJV is the most beautiful translation of the bible in English.

>For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

>For a CHILD IS BORN to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counsellor, God the Mighty, the Father of the world to come, the Prince of Peace.

First is KJV and the second is Douay-Rheims. Tell me honestly which is better.

Catholics hate the Bible in general, the Gospels most of all.
