John Wycliffe (1324-1384 AD) translated the first Bible into English under special permission but this Bible was mostly forbidden to be read. The Protestant Reformation began and Martin Luther wrote the first complete Bible totally in German in 1522. Wiliam Tynedale printed the first Bible in English independently in 1523. His work was used again in the King James Version in 1611.

Miles Coverdale 1535
The first printed Bible was the Gutenberg Bible, printed in 1456.
The Bible at first was printed in Latin, but then was translated into German, and then every language across Europe.
As early as the fourteenth century, there were a number of hand-written translations of various parts of the Bible. Johann Gutenberg invented the printing press in the 1450s, so there were no printed bibles prior to that time. Myles Coverdale printed the first complete English bible on 4 October 1535. John Rogers, using the pseudonym "Thomas Matthew," printed the second English bible in 1537, now known as the Matthew-Tyndale Bible. In 1539, Myles Coverdale published the third English bible, and the first one authorized by the English church for public use. It was known as "The Great Bible," because of its size. In 1560, the Geneva Bible became the fourth bible printed in English. In 1568, the Bishop's Bible, a revised version of the Great Bible, was published, making it the fifth bible printed in English. In 1609, the Douai/Rheims Bible was published, combining the Old Testament translation produced at Douai, France, with the New Testatment translation produced at Rheims. Finally, in 1611, the seventh English-language bible was published. Since its creation had been authorized by King James I, it is known as "The 1611 King James Bible."
One thought:I can provide a partial answer...The Bible was written originally in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, and there were already many handwritten copies in these languages and certain Egyptian dialects in existence by the 3rd century. The Wycliffe Bible in 1380 was the first complete handwritten Bible in the English . The first printed Bible, the Gutenberg Bible, came out in 1456, in Latin.
The first printed Bible was the Gutenberg Bible. (It wasn't printed in English.) I personally use the King James Version. If you want to get extremely technical, the original text for all Bibles comes from mainly the original Greek and Hebrew writings.
Johanns Gutenberg and Peter Schöffer printed the first Gutenberg Bible on 24 August 1456 in Mainz, Germany.
