More information regarding the Bible can be found below.
Did you know?
Catholics have more books in our Old Testament than the Protestants do. There are 46 books in a Catholic translation of the Bible.  These extra books are commonly referred to as the Apocrypha ( by Protestant) or Deuterocanonical Books (by Catholic). The books include Tobit, Judith, 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees, Wisdom of Solomon, Wisdom of Sirach (which is also called Ecclesiasticus), and Baruch.  A good explanation can be found on St Mary’s Catholic Campus Ministry’s website.

Did you know that there is a list of approved Catholic Translations of the Bibles? 
You can read more about it from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops website.
 
Fruitful Scripture Reading USCCB.org also hosts a page with guidelines for understanding the Bible. You can view it here.
