It was compiled quite a bit before the 4th century, but that is the oldest surviving copy. The "Tanakh", which is the Hebrew Bible is the original version and our modern Bible is based on that.

Who compiled the first Bible?
The bible that is used by the Christians, that is the old and new testaments, was put together by the Catholic church.
Who wrote the first half of the bible?
No one person. It was compiled from many stories.
Who compiled The Bible?
The bible was compiled around 325AD by Emperor Constantine and his hand picked bishops to unionize the christian church and make it a single hierarchy in order to unify the people once again and keep the empire under control.They decided which books of the bible would be considered sacred and which would be considered forbidden (banned books)Constantine also made Christianity legal, his predecessor, Emperor Theodosius, made it manditory by outlawing all non-christian religions around 391ADThe bible was compiled to strengthen the Roman Empire... good job Jesus.p.s.The idea of a belief in god or Jesus is no different in believing Jim Jonesis your savior.
What books are taken out of the Bible?
The books that form what is now known as the Bible were not originally written in order to be included in a 'Bible'. They were simply written to meet the religious or political purposes of their times. When, later, the concept of a collection of books, a 'Bible', came to the fore, some books were included and some were not.Until the first Bibles were compiled, there were no books in the Bible, to be taken out. It was merely a case of which of the many hundreds of potentially suitable books would be included, and which would not.Having said that, the Catholic Church included, and still includes, 15 'Deuterocanonical' books in its Old Testament. These were not included in the Hebrew Bible and, on the precedent of the Hebrew Bible, are not included in the Protestant Bible. Even the Catholic Church regards the Deuterocanonical books as not inspired in the same way as the canonical books are.
Who wrote many of the hymns of the Hebrew Bible?
A:Although many of the Psalms are traditionally attributed to King David, biblical scholars say that he did not really contribute to them. Most of the hymns are found in the Book of Psalms, which was compiled anonymously, so we do not know who wrote many of the hymns in the Old Testament.
