Is anyone on this thread fluent/conversant in all of these three languages? If not, why post?

For people who might want to learn Latin, or Greek, or both.

Besides, often the translations ion English are outright atrocious. The best translation I know is Douay, even though it is not free from error either; these posts demonstrate how close Douay is to Jerome’s Vulgate and the Vulgate to the Greek original.
