No. The Bible was not even a single book when first written, and none of the originals has survived to the present day. The Codex Sinaiticus is a manuscript copied in the fourth century. The word 'codex' means that it was written in leafed book form, as we invariably use today, as opposed to rolled-up scrolls.
Codex Sinaiticus has the four New Testament gospels, Acts of the Apostles, fourteen Epistles attributed to Paul, including Hebrews, seven catholic Epistles, the Revelation of John, the 'Epistle of Barnabas' and the Shepherd of Hermas.
As one of the very oldest surviving biblical manuscripts, it is important because it has Mark's Gospel finishing at verse 16:8, without 'Long Ending' that tells of the appearances of the risen Jesus.

Basically, the original Greek and Hebrew doesn't, but various translators have included, omitted, or added verses for various ideological reasons. For example, Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus (gnostic gospels - just because something is older doesn't make it better), Dhouay-Rheims (translated to agree with Roman Catholicism ), some translators are not christian, and as for paraphrases anything is permissable.
