ARTFL Project: Multi-lingual Bible If you need to identify a section from the Vulgate Bible, or need a quick crib for your transcription from it, you can find it here in this text searchable version. Vulgate (Latin Bible) Index Alternatively, if you prefer a plain text version of the Vulgate Bible, try here. Douay-Rheims Latin Vulgate Bible Another plain text version with a simple text search. Be aware that this site is produced by a group of people on a mission, which is to recognise a particular English translation of the Bible as the only true English version for reasons which seem to lack some rigour and logic. You can also sign up here to have the Latin mass restored if you wish. Ancient Versions of the Bible This links page within a fascinating site on the history of the Bible points to various texts of the Latin Vulgate. John Wyclif's Bible (ed.1395) A brief history of English language Bibles with the complete text of the Wyclif Bible. And no, I don't know why this is on a Russian website concerned with the Slavic Bible, as I can't read the Russian part of the site.
