ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION CATHOLIC EDITION (ESV-CE)

Beloved by millions around the world, the English Standard Version is ideal for anyone looking for a contemporary and readable translation.

The ESV-CE published by SPCK has been approved by the Catholic Bishops of England, Wales and Scotland, as the basis for the new Lectionary, which came into force in December 2024, and for all future liturgical texts used by Catholics.

One of the ESV's distinctive aims is to capture the precise wording of the original texts by rendering each Hebrew or Greek word with an equivalent English word. The result is an excellent version for detailed Bible study, but one that also possesses a beauty, clarity and dignity of style that makes it superbly suitable for reading alone or for reading aloud during public worship.
