Translations:Polish/3/en

There are about 20 translations of the Bible in Polish, most of them done in the last 20 years and a few new are in the process of translating. They may come from different traditions (Protestant or Catholic, the latter have more books in the Old Testament), some are easier to find in the internet while some you can only find in bookstores. There are still two historic translations around: The Catholic Biblia Wujka and the Protestant Biblia Gdańska. Both are around 400 years old and use a language which is very hard to understand today (this is also true for the "new" version of the Gdansk Bible, the "Nowa Biblia Gdańska"). Besides that, all contemporary translations are good for reading, prayer and Bible study. See also Wikipedia: Bible translations into Polish.
The following three translations are especially well-known and recommendable:
