There is exactly one acceptable German bible - the one translated by Martin Luther. It is the only one the Germans need.

And by the way, Mary was a virgin: the Hebrew word "almah" was so translated in the Septuagint, by the best Jewish scholars of the age.

There is a old joke about a guy who was talking to his friend about a book..

“You have anything interesting?”
“Just some old Bible.It’s in German. Some guy named Guten tag, guten schlag. something like that.”
“Gutenberg?”
“Yeah, that’s the guy.”
“What did you do with it?”
“I threw it out.”
“YOU THREW OUT A GUTENBERG BIBLE?”
“Ah, you wouldn’t have wanted it anyway. Some guy named Martin luther scribbled all over it.”
