I have always wanted the international side by side version that I had seen someone using…..lol, but have used all the above when in study….although, I am not a Catholic, so many use diff Bibles when quoting scripture that it is handy to know where they are getting it from.
Just type in the search box above whatever you seek….I have used different on-line Bibles all the time that way….
I’m rarely at the same comp, so I have diff things saved on each of them, lol otherwise I would just give you a link
Peace be with you

If you want THE best translation, you should invest in a Doay-Rheims Bible. My family and I are Traditional Catholics (Latin Mass only) and exclusively use the Doay-Rheims Bible.

*Is Catholic*
If you enjoy the KJV you will enjoy the Douai-Rheims as they share the same sentence structure and “old English” feel. The descendants of the KJV and the DR are based off of each other so finding a very simmular sounding Catholic Bible with the missing books is very easy.
Below is the sources of the English Translationshttp://www.scborromeo.org/images/fig5.gi…
That will show how they are different.
When it comes to a translation, be careful about vertical inclusive language (language that turns Father to Creator etc.). Most modern translations have this problem.
AS A NOTE the NAB used for Mass is not the same as the one you buy. The NAB for Mass have been updated to remove most of the inclusive language and other problems that the Holy See had with it.
ALSO: I would like to point out that the notes are very important and you should have a bible that has good notes not just one that you like the translation.
Other people have given good links to on line bibles.
