Translations
Translations and languages.
A translation is the edition; a language is the language it uses. Browse the two separately, then choose a version in the Bible reader.
A note on public domain
People do look for public-domain Bible editions for free reading, study, preservation, and reuse. “Public domain” describes copyright status only; it does not diminish the sacredness or importance of the text.
