The Bible is the writings of Christian not the creation of Catholics. The Old Testament was written by Jew, while the New Testament was written by Catholics; all being the Inspired Word of God. The Bible (all 73 books) was assembled and defined as The Bible by Catholics.
Protestants took The Bible with them when they left, and still use part of it, usually badly mistranslated or even embellished.

You said: usually badly mistranslated or even embellished.
Or even, in some cases, changed to suit their needs.

The Old Testament was written by Jew, while the New Testament was written by Catholics; Funny, I doubt Paul considered himself 'Catholic' and certainly did not sign up to all of the Catholic doctrine. But he did consider himself a believer. Calling him "Catholic" is typical of Catholic thinking.
