If you attend a TLM

[Manfred]

Since I live in the archdiocese of Boston, MA, there will probably have to be a Council of Trent II before I ever get to attend a TLM.

So, for those of you who are fortunate enough to attend a TLM and have actually done so lately, tell me: when the Gospel (and maybe the Epistle) is/are read to the congregation in English, which translation is used: Douay-Rheims? Confraternity NT (1941)? something else?

The readings here at several parishes in New York City appear to be from the Douay-Rheims.

I have attended the TLM at two different parishes. One parish used the D-R , but the other parish used the RNAB .

Sorry, but what is TLM and RNAB? I don’t understand.

TLM is Tridentine Latin Mass. RNAB is Revised New American Bible.

Why would they read an English translation at a Latin Mass?

Out of curiosity.

The Epistle and Gospel are read in Latin at the altar, but then the priest reads the Epistle and Gospel at the pulpit in English before he gives his sermon.
