The standard translation is known as the Biblia Vulgata, or "Vulgate" in English. It was produced by St. Jerome in the fifth century AD. This version replaced some older Latin translations, which are now collectively known as Vetus Latina, or "Old Latin", version.

Why was Luther's translation of the Bible into German so important?

The translation of the Bible into German was important because, prior to this, it was only really available in Latin. Since the majority of people could not understand Latin, this meant that the Bible (and also church services and rites, which were also in Latin) were incomprehensible to them. By translating the Bible into the language of the people, Martin Luther made it accessible to them and allowed them to read and interpret it on their own, rather than through the intermediary of the Catholic church.
