It depends.....

Devotion.....either the Douay-Rheims or Navarre

Scholarship......Latin Vulgate (seriously) or RSV-CE

General posting......either the Douay-Rheims or NAB

Apologetics.....RSV-CE, various Protestant versions, NKJV and KJV, being the most used outside of the RSV-CE

Posted

St. Ignatius translation....it's the best!

New English Bible for enjoyment, St Ignatius or Navarre for apologetics.

I use a regular NAB, a Catholic Study Bible NAB (both with footnotes), and My First Bible (not sure if it's Catholic, but I love the illustrations) :P:

Also happen to have a pocket KJV with Proverbs, Psalms, and the New Testament.

The NAB (minus the notes) and D-R because they are both readily available online. I wish the RSV-CE or the lectionary edition of the NAB without the footnotes was online...

NA revised.

Posted

The Jerusalem Bible (1966) for devotional reading; the RSV-CE for serious study. These are my go-to translations.

But I also own and read the NRSV-CE (I live in Canada, and it's the translation our lectionary is based upon), the NAB, and the Douay-Rheims.
