This is only true if you believe that the Apocyphal books, which the Jews never considered as Holy Scripture, are inspired.

Unless you count Jews like Jesus and His Apostles, who quote from the Septuagint most often (by far) when referencing the Old Testament.

Septuagint quotes in the New Testament.
Deuterocanonical books in the New Testament

Are you saying that because a book was in the Septuagint that it Holy Scripture. If that is so than you are still missing many books in your own Scripture. The Apocryphal books were never part are Jewish canon. Luther did not remove these he merely put them back where Jerome placed them - as edifying but not inspired.
