New Revised Standard Version: Catholic Edition is unavailable, but you can change that!

The New Revised Standard Version is recognized in scholarly circles as the most accurate translation into English of the original Hebrew and Greek texts and is used by many Catholics. The Catholic Edition of the NRSV includes all the books of the Catholic canon.

Then the king wrote to his whole kingdom that all should be one people, and that all should give up their particular customs. All the Gentiles accepted the command of the king. Many even from Israel gladly adopted his religion; they sacrificed to idols and profaned the sabbath.
1 Maccabees 1:41–43
