Do the Catholics have a Greek/English Bible?

I am looking for a Greek translation into English of the New Testament. A Bible with side-by-side Greek/English or something similar. Do the Catholics have such a thing on the web?

Dear Jamey, There is a superb website with the King James Bible, which has all the verses in Hebrew and Greek, as well as English. Though the KJV is a Protestant Bible, its NT is very similar to the Catholic Revised Standard Version NT. The differences are so negligible they're hardly worth mentioning. You can find it at www.khouse.org/blueletter/index.html It's OT is good too, except that its missing a few books that we Catholics (rightly!) regard as canonical. Glad you're interested! Yours in Christ, Chris B

Thanks for the info, I found this one a couple of months ago it's been very helpful.

Also, is there a Catholic Bible on the net - with "all" of the old Testament?

Dear Jamey,The Douai Rheims (Catholic) Bible is on-line, and it has all the books of the Bible. It's at www.cybercomm.net/~dcon/drbible.html
At Dave Armstrong's website ic.net/~erasmus/ if you click on the Sacred Scripture and Tradition section, and then go to the bottom of the list, there's a link to the KJV translation of the deuterocanoncals, too (the ones the Protestants dropped from the Bible), as well as a link to the Bible Gateway, which has the RSV (which Catholics read), unfortunately missing the deuterocanonicals. If you were to buy a Catholic Bible in a bookstore, I'd reccommend the RSV with the Deuterocanonicals (sometimes called "Apocrypha/Deuterocanonicals").
Yours in Christ,
