The Catholic Audio Bible

The Catholic Audio Bible brings the Douay-Rheims — the Catholic Church's traditional English translation of Sacred Scripture — to life in narrated audio, so you can listen to the entire Bible the way it was heard for centuries: read aloud.

First translated by English Catholic scholars in exile — the New Testament at Rheims in 1582, the Old Testament at Douay in 1609 and 1610 — and later revised by Bishop Richard Challoner in the mid-1700s, the Douay-Rheims has been the Bible entrusted to English-speaking Catholics for over four hundred years. This app brings that same translation to your ears, narrated in full, from Genesis to the Apocalypse.
