There may be slight differences owing to translation and interpretation of each word in the original, but the books are exactly the same. The only difference between a Catholic bible and a Protestant one is the Deuterocanonicals.

Is Catholic New Testament and Protestant New Testament the same?

The Catholic and Protestant New Testament have the same 27 books and are universally recognized within Christianity. There are some differences due to the translations and interpretations of original scripture sources.The Catholic and Protestant Bibles differ in the Catholic Bibles having additional books in the Old Testament called the Apocrypha including Judith, Wisdom of Solomon, Tobit, Sirach, and others.Besides the inclusion of the Apocrypha in the Catholic Bible, there are also subtle differences in the texts mostly by choices made by the translators and their best interpretation.Some examples:Matthew 9:13 (KJV) - "But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."Matthew 9:13 (NRSV) - "Go and learn what this means, 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners."Acts 2:38 (KJV) - Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.Acts 2:38 (Douay-Rheims) - But Peter said to them: Do penance, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sins: and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.Note the subtle difference of in Matthew 9:13 of calling sinners to repentance in the KJV vs just calling sinners. Likewise, in Acts 2:38 the word choice of repent vs doing penance.When comparing biblical texts you need to understand the goal of the particular version. Some Bible translations are literal translations and others are dynamic translations or even paraphrasing to capture the meaning but not the original word choices. In addition, there are implied cultural nuances from which translation requires more than just matching words verbatim hence the different wordings in these translations.

How many books are in the first division of the bible?

In the King James Version of the Holy Bible there are 66 books. There are 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament. This will be the same for the NIV, ASV, NASB, NKJV, etc....The Catholic Bible contains the Apocrypha and other texts.The Mormon Bible and Jehovah's Witness Bible [may] differ from both of these as the scriptures are not the same and revisions have been made which are not consistent with either the Catholic version or the KJV, NIV, NASB, ASV, NKJV, etc...The Bible was put together over the early portion of the development of the Catholicos (Universal) church. Books had to be consistent with each other, support each other, as well as a whole host of other very specific requirements which were developed by God fearing, influenced men, seeking to do the will of God..Catholic AnswerThe Old Testament consists of 46 books. It can be viewed several different ways: 1. Jesus referred to it as "The Law and the Prophets"..2. Classically it is divided into:a. The Pentateuch (The Law) (5 books)b. The Historical Booksc. The Wisdom Booksd. The Prophetsfrom The Catholic Encyclopedia:The canon of the Old Testament in the Catholic ChurchThe most explicit definition of the Catholic Canon is that given by the Council of Trent, Session IV, 1546. For the Old Testament its catalogue reads as follows: The five books of Moses (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy), Josue, Judges, Ruth, the four books of Kings, two of Paralipomenon, the first and second of Esdras (which latter is called Nehemias), Tobias, Judith, Esther, Job, the Davidic Psalter (in number one hundred and fifty Psalms), Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, the Canticle of Canticles, Wisdom, Ecclesiasticus, Isaias, Jeremias, with Baruch, Ezechiel, Daniel, the twelve minor Prophets (Osee, Joel, Amos, Abdias, Jonas, Micheas, Nahum, Habacuc, Sophonias, Aggeus, Zacharias, Malachias), two books of Machabees, the first and second.The order of books copies that of the Council of Florence, 1442, and in its general plan is that of the Septuagint. The divergence of titles from those found in the Protestant versions is due to the fact that the official Latin Vulgate retained the forms of the Septuagint.

The difference between Protestant and Catholic Church decoration is great and varied and I should liken it to the difference between a donut and a French Gateaux.

This is reflected in all aspects of the building; so, the richer the Tradition more elaborate the building.
