What translation of the bible are they using on EWTN?!

[spangler1982]

I just downloaded today’s reading and homily in audio on EWTN. At 4 minutes 26 seconds into the audio clip, Deacon Bill Steltemeier reads a very unusual translation of Mark 5:25 that I’ve never heard before! To listen for yourself, either click on here, and the Tuesday homily this week or here, and listen to January 30, 2007

It’s a very amusing mistake if it is one!

25 And a woman who was under an issue of blood twelve years,

What did it say?

25 And a woman who was under an issue of blood twelve years,

What did it say?

He said “There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhoids for twelve years”.

 

[spangler1982]

He said “There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhoids for twelve years”.

I guess Jesus brought the Preparation-H!

 

[Fidelis]

He was probably reading from the NAB where the word is “hemorrhage.” A very funny slip of the tongue, I would guess.

I heard this too, but I just thought"Wow, I never heard that before", but didn’t dwell on it. But now that you have reminded me, I can’t stop laughing!
