For God so loved þe world, as to give his only begotten son; þat whosoever believeth in him, may not be slain, but may have life everlasting. John 3:16 DRA

Welcome To Þhe Webside of Þhe Douay-Rhiems Anglish Bible

Þe Douay-Rheims Bible, a held-forþ beshaping from þe Latin Vulgate, keeps hold of þe heavenly and folkish eave of many years gone by. Þis Anglish beshaping seeks to keep þe kernel, teachings, and telling of þe first queath while taking to heart a word-hoard and way that calls to mind þe Old and Middle English ways.

In þis shape, work has been done to swap out words from Romish or Latin roots with words from þe Germanish stock, bringing to mind þe speechcrafting lore and calling up a kindred way with þe oldest shapes of þe English tongue.

It’s wise to understand þat speech changes over time, and þis shape seeks to give a nod to þe olden roots of English while giving God’s Word a way that folks can get to and find a kinship with for those who keep near þe tale and kinship of our Germanish speech.

May þis Anglish telling of þe Douay-Rheims Bible stir up worship, understanding, and a closer tie with þe holy queath for those who seek to seek þe Word of God through þe eyeglass of a Germanish-rooted English.
