Saint Jerome wrote the Vulgate. Jerome was a Roman Catholic priest who lived from 347 to 420 AD. He and others consulted original texts in Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic to clean up the Latin translation then in use by the Catholic Church. He was tasked to do this by Pope Damasus the First in the year 382.
