That is why the Church from the very beginning accepted as her own that very ancient Greek translation of the Old Testament which is called the septuagint; and she has always given a place of honor to other Eastern translations and Latin ones especially the Latin translation known as the vulgate.
Kwa sababu hiyo Kanisa la awali lilipokea kama mali yake tafsiri ya zamani ya kigriki ya Agano la Kale iitwayo ya LXX [Septuajinta au “Watu Sabini”]; pia liliheshimu daima tafsiri nyingine za Mashariki na za Kilatini, hasa ile iitwayo Vulgata.
