The Translation: Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

This website uses the Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV) of the Sacred Bible, translated by Ronald L. Conte Jr.

Source & Methodology

The CPDV is a literal translation of the Latin Vulgate (Clementine edition), which has been the authoritative Bible of the Catholic Church since the Council of Trent. The translation also references the Challoner Douay-Rheims version for traditional Catholic terminology.

Public Domain Status

The CPDV text was explicitly released into the public domain by the translator. This means you are free to copy, quote, and distribute this Bible text without needing permission or paying royalties.
