The Jerusalem Bible is used for Mass throughout the world. Except in the United States.

This is really a biased poll of Bible users since it does not include Catholics.

Other Catholic Bible translations approved:

Vulgate — from where do you think you got your Bibles?
Douay Rheims
RSV
NABRE or Revised NAB
and others

I read NRSV every day, 2 chapters. Is it Catholic approved?

Douay Rheims and NAB for me.

The Jerusalem Bible is my favorite Bible, but I also have both the NAB updated and the NRSV, Catholic edition as well.

Well, not from the Vulgate. The last major translation into English from it was the Wycliffe Bible.

And the modern DR is the revision made around 1750, which took the KJV and adjusted passages to make it agree with Catholic theology.
