Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

Description

The Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV) is a modern English translation of the Sacred Bible, based on the Latin Vulgate. Translated by Ronald L. Conte Jr. in 2009, it is the only modern Catholic Bible translation in the Public Domain.

The CPDV updates the Challoner Douay-Rheims version while remaining faithful to the Vulgate text. It uses contemporary English while preserving the theological precision of the Latin original. The translation includes both the protocanonical books (those accepted by all Christians) and the deuterocanonical books (those specific to the Catholic canon).

Important note: This dataset contains the 66-book Protestant canon (protocanonical books only). The deuterocanonical books (Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, 1-2 Maccabees, and additions to Daniel/Esther) may be added in a future version.

Notes

  • This dataset covers the 66-book Protestant canon (protocanonical books). The deuterocanonical books accepted by the Catholic Church are not included in this release.
  • The CPDV is based on the Latin Vulgate, making it a translation of a translation — from the original Hebrew and Greek into Latin (by St. Jerome), and then from Latin into English.
  • For a more direct translation from the original languages within the Catholic tradition, see the Douay-Rheims version.
