{{BibleHistory}}
A [[Catholic Bible]] differs in the number, order, and occasionally preferred emphasis from books typically found in Bibles used by [[Protestant]]s. The [[Catholic Church]] declares: "Easy access to Sacred Scripture should be provided for all the Christian faithful. That is why the Church from the very beginning accepted as her own that very ancient [[Koine Greek|Greek]] translation of the [[Old Testament]] which is called the [[Septuagint]]; and she has always given a place of honor to other Eastern translations and Latin ones especially the Latin translation known as the [[Vulgate]]."<ref>{{cite web |url = https://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/documents/vat-ii_const_19651118_dei-verbum_en.html | title = Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation, ''Dei verbum'' |access-date = 2015-01-21 | publisher = Vatican | ___location = Vatican}}</ref> Not all the books in the Septuagint<ref>The Oxford University Press publication, {{cite book |last1=Pietersma |first1=Albert |author-link1=Albert Pietersma |last2=Wright|first2=Benjamin G.|title=A New English Translation of the Septuagint|date=2007|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=9780199743971|pages=v–vi|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=17CBLsFpnsgC&q=Pietersma+Septuagint+Contents&pg=PR5|access-date=22 January 2015}}, lists in its table of contents the books included in the Septuagint</ref> are included among those that the Catholic Church considers to be part of the Old Testament.<ref>Examples of Septuagint books not granted canonical status by the Catholic Church are [[Esdras|3 and 4 Esdras]], [[3 Maccabees]] and [[4 Maccabees]].</ref>
