<h3>[[The Bible]]</h3div>The Bible is a collection of documents compiled into one book almost 2,000 years ago. Although it was men who put pen to paper, the Bible itself tells us that it is ''God-breathed''. It is the most widely read book in the world and has been translated into hundreds of languages. In English alone there are dozens of translations in common use, including the [[King James Version]] and [[Bible, English, World English|The World English Bible]].
