The New American Bible Translation Does a Serious Disservice to Scripture...
LITTLE BY LITTLE
"You, My child, must give more effort to spreading the gospel truth.
The Book of life and love, the Bible, is being rewritten. It is done,
My child, with great cunning and deception. Only those in the light,
make knowledgeable by the light, will recognize this deception. Little
by little the errors are being spread.” - Our Lady, December 24, 1974
REWRITTEN
"My children, the Book of life, your Bible, has been rewritten--written
to suit the modes of modernism and humanism. Satan can also quote the
Scriptures. And you must understand that satan will cover himself by
deception by appearing through human beings as angels of light. In one
hand they hold the Bible but in the other a dagger akin to satanism.” -
Our Lady, July 25, 1979
"The road to the Kingdom of God is found in the reading of the Scriptures.
Man does not know God. He no longer looks for Him in the revelations of the Holy
Bible.
"The soul in exile can only be nourished by the word of God, through Jesus
and His sacrifice on the cross. The Holy Bible is your family heirloom."
- Our Lady in locution, April 7, 1970
"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." - Jesus, October 5, 1985

By Anthony Esolen
In a column a few weeks ago, I called upon the USCCB to drive a stake through the undead heart of the dreadful New American Bible — and the lectionary based upon it. I said that I would discuss several categories of their blunders. The first was the NAB's drab preference for the abstract over the visible and palpable. The second category is this: ideological tendentiousness, unhelpful either for understanding the Bible or for inspiring or strengthening faith.
The good translator or editor ought to burn into his soul the words of the Baptist: He must increase, and I must decrease. Nothing and no one should obtrude between the reader and the text. That doesn't mean you will not profit from commentary. But the commentary should always aim to elucidate, not to confuse, and never to thrust upon the reader the vague authority of "scholars," who are often only a little club of like-minded people.
The NAB violates that directive at every pass.
Consider the very beginning of Genesis: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." It's bad already that you can't get there without a "title," "The Story of Creation," which will be followed by other titles and subtitles, and separation of the text into blocks, not for visual ease, but for editorial decisions regarding presentation — what goes with what, and what doesn't. The mighty first sentence I have cited doesn't exist in the NAB. It is in the Septuagint, and in Jerome's Vulgate. It is in every other modern version of Scripture that I can find, in English, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Welsh, Swedish, and Icelandic. It is not in the NAB.
What is there? A grammatical train-wreck:In the beginning, when God created the heavens and the earth — and the earth was without form and shape, with darkness over the abyss and a mighty wind sweeping over the waters — Then God said, Let there be light, and there was light.
What is this business about when and then? The editors explain: "Until modern times the first line was always translated, 'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.' Several comparable ancient cosmogonies, discovered in recent times, have a 'when...then' construction, confirming the translation 'when...then' here as well. 'When' introduces the pre-creation state and 'then' introduces the creative act affecting that state. The traditional translation, 'In the beginning,' does not reflect the Hebrew syntax of the clause."
Strange, that the Hebrew speakers who composed the Septuagint did not see it that way, nor did Saint Jerome. The most we can say is that you might read it the way the editors do, but there is no call for it; the traditional reading is the literal one, rendering the plain sense of the text. Why then would you not follow it?
The editors give themselves away when they bring up the "comparable ancient cosmogonies," recently discovered, while neglecting to mention that those were pagan cosmogonies: the Babylonian Enuma Elish, most obviously. The whole point of Genesis is that there are no comparable ancient cosmogonies. That is its glory.
Everywhere else, cosmogony is preceded by theogony, the birth of the gods. Not here. Everywhere else, the myth-making mind of man focuses upon the origin of the stuff out of which the world would be made; for instance, the dismembered limbs of the malignant Babylonian mother-goddess Tiamat. Not here.
Here, the earth, made by God but not yet lent any character, is tohu w'vohu, an excellent rhyming pair in the Hebrew. These words do not just describe something shapeless, like jelly. They are more powerful than that, morally and ontologically: formlessness, confusion, unreality, emptiness, says the primary Hebrew lexicon, translating tohu, and showing how that meaning extends to what is empty, unreal, worthless; such as moral unreality or falsehood.
Luther's wuest und leer gets the point across, as does the Douay void and empty, following Jerome's inanis et vacua. The sacred author did not have a metaphysical vocabulary; we have here his most potent way of asserting that without the creative will of God, we have what is somehow worse than mere absence.
It seems, then, that the editors want to sap the faith. They say, slyly, "And hath the Church said that God made the world from nothing? Perhaps so, but we cannot find it in the text."
We see the same motive in their uncharacteristic turn toward the physical later in the sentence, where they say that a "mighty wind" was "sweeping over the waters." Aware that they are jiggering the text, they relegate the literal meaning to a footnote: A mighty wind: literally, "spirit or breath [ruah] of God"; cf. Gn. 8:1. The reference to 8:1 is not pertinent, because the Hebrew there does not read ruah Elohim, spirit of God. There, ruah simply means wind, as it often does; God is raising a wind to settle the seas after the flood. But ruah in general means breath, wind, spirit, with reference to one's principle of life, or one's will, desire, temper. It is an extraordinary image, then, that the spirit, the breath, the power of God should be moving or hovering or brooding above the waters.
That's the action, but the NAB squad, having decided to elbow God from his place, giving us that "mighty wind," could not then translate the verb as having to do with gentle movement, or with cherishing and brooding, as the Hebrew lexicon would have it. So we have sweeping instead. Instead of God intimately involving himself in what is otherwise without meaning, we have Him as an interested spectator, looking upon a hurricane or something, and then deciding to do something about it.
In other words, they have blunted the earth-shaking newness of the sacred text, muffling the profound theological insights, and reducing it to a fairy-tale. They have made it less poetic, but more ordinary, everyday, and dull. They use every schoolish excuse they can to offend against the straightforward tenets of the faith.
"You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man. I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady of the Roses, October 6, 1992
WILL NOT BE CHANGED
"The Book is going into deep darkness also. The words will not be rewritten to suit man. The words of God will not be changed to pamper man on earth.” - St. Robert Bellarmine, February 10, 1973REWRITTEN BY SATAN
“You will read the Book of life, My children. We left you a treasure of knowledge. But your Book is being up-dated, and this Book is being rewritten by satan.” - Our Lady, March 25, 1972
Read the Bible cover to cover. If you read 4 chapters a day, you will complete the
whole Bible in 334 days. I have read the Bible 2 times and working on the
third time. A 75 year old Baptism gentleman told me that he and his wife
have read the Bible nine times. Wow!

Our Lady of the Roses Awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/ These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
CLEAR, PRECISE LANGUAGE
"My Son left you a legacy of faith. He gave you very clearly the plan for your redemption. It was written down in clear, precise language for all to know, and what have you done, but you have darkened the pages of your Bible. You have rewritten them so that you would gain, and gain what but damnation! You are rewriting the Book of Life to satisfy the basic foul carnal natures of mankind! The road to the Eternal Kingdom is a narrow road. Many have left it now and are wandering farther into darkness.” - Our Lady, May 26, 1976“TO DESTROY YOUR FAITH”
"My child, you must work with great haste. The enemies of the Father in the Kingdom, have set themselves to destroy the knowledge that has been given to you through the ages. You must gather the books of truth. Many have been rewritten to destroy your Faith.” - Our Lady, February 10, 1975READ A BIBLE THAT HAS NOT BEEN CHANGED
OLD BIBLES
Veronica - Now Michael is, with his spear, he's closing the Bible. And it's growing very dark around the Bible.
St. Michael - "You see, My child, how satan has poisoned the minds of many. The Book is being rewritten to satisfy the basic carnal nature of mankind. Learn the truth by reading a Book that has not been changed.” - St. Michael, August 14, 1976
"You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man. I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992
FEW SHORT CHAPTERS
"I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible. Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds. But do not be concerned what you will say to them when accosted, for the words will be given to you by the Spirit." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976
UNDERSTAND
"Your Bible must be studied well, and you will understand that the Eternal Father gave you truly a simple way to follow. It goes far beyond much human understanding, because without prayer and suffering and penance, you will not have the gift from the Eternal Father to understand even the Sacred Scriptures." - St. Theresa, October 2, 1979
IN YOUR HEART
"The Book of life and love, the Bible, shall never be taken from you. And the words once read will remain in your heart. Fathers of families, and mothers, give the example of this knowledge to your children. Take them with you to a quiet corner and read, for in this manner will they learn the truth and be given the light." - Our Lady, March 18, 1974
THEOLOGIANS
"There are many theologians, even in My Son's House now, that are bringing to mankind doctrines of demons. They are teachings of man and not of God. Many have set themselves in their arrogance to change the wordings in the Book of love and life, the Bible. These changes were to seduce mankind into bondage of sin." - Our Lady, June 2, 1979
SODOM AND GOMORRHA
"Your word of homosexuality can be explained by the story of Sodom and Gomorrha. Read in your Bibles...." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992
FIFTEEN MINUTES
"I say now, My children, that you must understand there are great graces given for reading the Bible, even a short time of fifteen minutes; you will be graced by indulgences.* Have you forgotten, My children, in the modernization of My Son's Church, have you forgotten the meaning of indulgences? They are applicable to the time you may have to put in purgatory, My children." - Our Lady, July 25, 1985
*The exhortations to the faithful from the Vicars of Christ to read the Word of God have resounded in unison the last 100 years. Numerous letters, discourses and especially the granting of indulgences bear out their ardent desire to encourage this pious exercise.
INDULGENCES
"Much of your Faith in graces and indulgences, My child, they have been removed, Gather the books given to you in the past. Though mankind has set himself above His God to remove these from among you, know that in the will of the Father, they have not been removed. You will receive all the numerous graces of indulgences as directed by your good leaders of old." - Our Lady, September 13, 1974
HEIRLOOM
"The road to the Kingdom of God is found in the reading of the Scriptures. Man does not know God. He no longer looks for Him in the revelations of the Holy Bible.
"The soul in exile can only be nourished by the word of God, through Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross. The Holy Bible is your family heirloom." - Our Lady in locution, April 7, 1970
1965
"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." - Jesus, October 5, 1985
GOSPELS
Veronica - Theresa said she has always carried this small Book in the fold of her garment. (She means her habit.) I can see now she is holding it very close to me. It is the Gospels. Now Theresa said: "I was not a learned person or a scholar upon earth, but all I had and all I needed was this little Book. And I also treasured the Imitation of Christ." - St. Theresa, December 31, 1972
HEAD COVERINGS
"It is a defiant act, My children, that women no longer cover their heads at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. They will not obey, for they cannot understand that man must not change the wording of the Bible. Man and the hierarchy must not change the wording of the Bible to suit mankind's instincts." - Our Lady, July 15, 1978
AS A WHOLE
"Those who have little knowledge of the Book of life and love, the Bible, will fall easy prey to false witnesses who go about the world now, deceiving even some of the elect. You must read your Bible so that you will not be deluded by the written word. The Bible cannot be taken as sectional or piece by piece, but you must know the whole, for satan has poisoned many minds. And Satan, too, can expound the Scriptures." - Our Lady, May 26, 1979
