The Douay-Rheims 1899

Experience the majesty of the 1899 American Edition. This scrupulously faithful translation of the Latin Vulgate bridges the gap between ancient tradition and English prose.

It prevents the "modernization" of text found in newer translations, preserving the theological precision and formal dignity that has guided Catholics for centuries.
