Bagong Magandang Balita Biblia (RTPV)

Bagong Magandang Balita Biblia (Revised Tagalog Popular Version) is the 2005 revision of "Magandang Balita Biblia" The new revision as of 2005, changed some proper names such as 'Nabucadnosor' to the more familiar 'Nebucadnezar' and 'Esdras' to 'Ezra'. Likewise, the new revision has its footnotes added and had also interspersed the deuterocanonical books in its Catholic versions. Likewise, some archaic words found in the 1980 edition, such as 'patutot'(prostitute), 'pakakak' (trumpet), 'saserdote'(priest), and 'lebadura'(yeast) were changed to contemporary 'babaing nagbebenta ng aliw', 'trumpeta', 'pari', 'pampaalsa'.
