Catholic Bible app

Immerse yourself in the sacred scriptures with the Catholic version of the Bible, the Douay-Rheims Bible, Challoner Revision (DRC 1752), now available in a user-friendly and beautifully designed app. This version includes the deuterocanonical books, essential to the Catholic faith.

The Douay-Rheims Bible is a revered translation of the Latin Vulgate into English, crafted at the University of Douai in France. The New Testament was first published in 1582 in Rheims, leading to its well-known name. The translation was later revised by the English Catholic bishop Richard Challoner in 1752, who modernized the vocabulary, spelling, and structure to enhance readability.
