You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.

Hey there, Sprouts.

Today is Friday, November 16th, 2018.

It is also the Feast of St. Margaret of Scotland.

English. The Bible was written in Greek or Aramaic. These languages very different from English.

And all the levels of translation, all the times it's been translated, all the different languages it's been

translated into, sometimes the words that we're using aren't quite perfect. So scholars help us

get them a little bit better, and then we tweak. We're talking about kind of a larger idea
