There is no modern English translation of the original texts, because the originals were lost many centuries ago, and the earliest known manuscripts are too rare and precious to be used other than for research purposes. Perhaps the best modern English translation that includes the apocrypha is the New American Bible. All modern Bibles contain some translation errors, whether from Greek to English, Greek to Latin or Latin to English. Modern Bibles also contain interpolations now known not to be in the earliest manuscripts, but the NAB may sometimes provide footnotes when this occurs. Catholic Bibles, the New American Bible included, contain the Additions to Esther. These are acknowledged additions that were certainly not in the original, but are included because the Church regards them as inspired.
