The Catholic, Jewish and Protestant Bibles all contain the Book of Leviticus. Verse 19:28 says, in the classic Douey Rheimes (Catholic) translation: "You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh, for the dead, neither shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks: I am the Lord." This is unambiguous about cutting or gashing one's self as a response to someone's death, but not as clear about other things. Is the "for the dead" supposed to limit the prohibition in the second part, and does the second part only apply to tattooed writing (that is the word used that Douey translates as "figures or marks") or does it apply broadly? One feature of many translations is that the translators have attempted to resolve ambiguities in the original Hebrew, imposing a sense of certainty on a text that is actually rather ambiguous.

Where does it say in the Catholic Bible that baptism can be done by sprinkling?
Roman Catholic AnswerThere is only a Bible, the Bible used by the Catholic Church is the entire New Testament and the entire Old Testament. The only thing that makes it a "Catholic" Bible is the guarantee in the front of it that it conforms to the Bible as accepted by the Church since the fourth century.
