4. Translations from the Latin text into the mother tongue intended for use in the liturgy must be approved by the competent territorial ecclesiastical authority mentioned above.

Perhaps that's where the goof; when they translated "venerate" to worship of Mary. ;O)

Perhaps you are aware of the backlash of devotions to Mary immediately following Vatican 2? Some were teaching that the rosary was no longer allowed! Statues were removed from churches. Devotions to Mary were greatly decreased. How exactly is that a change to "worship"? Fortunately, brighter heads have prevailed and there has been a return to some degree of devotion to our Blessed Mother.

Regards
