A completely new Catholic translation in conformity with the Church's
translation guidelines, the New Catholic Version is intended to be used
by Catholics for daily prayer and meditation, as well as private
devotion and group study as an alternative to other translations
currently available. This faithful reader-friendly translation of the
New Testament was prepared by the same team as the NCV Psalms released
in 2002 and widely acclaimed for its readability and copious,
well-written and informative notes. This St. Joseph Edition with
photographs and maps of the Holy Land and many other Bible helps,
including the words of Christ in red, features a brown flexible cover.
