''' Valencian Bible ''' (1478) is a book by [[Daniel Vives]]. 

==Abstract ==
The so-called ''Valencian Bible'' is the third known printed translation of the Bible in a modern language, after the German edition by [[Johannes Mentelin]] in 1466, and the Italian edition by [[Niccolò Malermi]] in 1471. This Catalan translation also was based on the Latin text of the Vulgata. The translation is often believed to be that authored by Bonifaci Ferrer (1350-1417) at the beginning of the 15h century, but most likely it was the work of [[Berenguer Vives]], revised by [[Daniel Vives]]. The latter was considered responsible by the Inquisition of breaking the ban against the publication of vernacular translations of the sacred text. All copies of the Valencian Bible were burned; the only known surviving paper sheet is preserved today at the Hispanic Society in New York. No other translation of the Bible in Catalan appeared until the 19th century.
