1
St
. comprehensive English translation - prepared by the
National Catholic Welfare Conference 1967

revision of the English translation of the Missale Romanum

2001 Liturgiam Authenticam Vatican Guidelines on translation

2002 New edition (3rd) of Latin Roman Missal

Now in English from about 2010

Why?
Church wanted these translations to reflect how people
spoke in everyday life


Other languages on Vatican Website e.g. Dutch, Italian,
Soanish, Portugese, French and English
To think about is being said


To renew faith of congregation


To appeal to a younger congregation
Translation mechanics
Some hold the view that it is difficult to
accurately translate from Latin to English

Old text reads: of all that is seen and unseen.
The new text reads: of all things visible and
invisible.

They have the same meaning, but the Church
says the new one is closer to the original Latin.
The current English translation reads:
"Take this, all of you, and drink from it:
This is the cup of my blood, the blood of
the new and everlasting covenant. It will
be shed for you and for all so that sins
may be forgiven. Do this in memory of
me.
The Latin original does not say that
Christs blood will be shed "for you and
for all"
