NEW YORK - Now here's a Bible that a multilingual pope could truly appreciate.

The American Bible Society will unveil a 3,200-page Bible that features translations of the Scriptures into five different languages, including Aramaic.

A delegation from the society will travel to Rome next week to present the "Biblia Polyglotta" to Pope Benedict, who speaks six languages.

American Bible Society scholars worked on the new Bible for nearly a year and a half.
