The '''New Jerusalem Bible''' is a 1985 update to the 1966 [[Jerusalem Bible]], both which are [[liberal]] translations of the [[Bible]] by [[Catholic]]s in [[England]] without any adherence to [[Protestantism|Protestant]] doctrine. "Gender inclusive" language rather than fidelity to the original text is one flaw. There are also copious annotations of dubious validity. This translation is rejected by [[conservatives]].

In the Jerusalem Bible, [[Gospel of Luke|Luke]] 1:28 departs the familiar translation of the Annunciation to [[Mary]] with this wording:
+
+
:"Rejoice, so highly favored! The Lord is with you."
+
+
The traditional translation is:
+
+
:"Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women."
+
+
The Jerusalem Bible then omitted the final phrase of the [[Vulgate]] ("full of grace"), and does not even mention it in a footnote.
