Catholic AnswerNo, the Vatican only has control over the Vulgate, which is the official Bible of the Catholic Church, currently the "New Vulgate". It is in Latin. Translations of The Bible must conform to the Vulgate or the original tongues, and anyone who publishes a new translation must seek an Imprimatur from his Bishop, or the Bishop of the diocese in which it is printed. An Imprimatur is supposed to mean that it contains no errors in translation, or heresy in the notes. Unfortunately, over the past fifty years, the Imprimatur has been given out rather indiscriminately, and thus there are Bibles that contain the Imprimatur which may be suspect. You should check with a reputable Catholic website such as Catholic Answers as to whether your Bible is okay or not.
