New American Bible Translation
|
-
The New American Bible, published
in 1970, was the 1st official English-language Catholic Bible to be
translated from the original Hebrew, Greek & Aramaic. This fresh
translation was born out of the need for a new version of Scripture
that would be suitable for liturgical proclamation, private reading
& study.
-
This is the official translation of the
US Conference of Bishops.
-
The challenge for the translators was to
produce a version of the Bible with language dignified enough for
formal liturgical use but contemporary enough to be readily
understandable to the laity.
-
Used throughout the US and other English
speaking countries, it is highly recognized because of its use in
the liturgy.
|
-
In 1978, a comprehensive revision was
made to the NAB New Testament in order to incorporate recent
biblical scholarship, as well as to reflect the changing nature of
the English language.
-
Also in 1978, the editors aspired to
produce a version more accurate & faithful to the Greek as closely
as possible.
-
In 1992, the ICEL committee approved the
Revised Psalms and they were introduced into Catholic Press
editions.
-
The text of the NAB is the official text
of the Roman Catholic Lectionary used throughout the US.
