Are Catholic Bibles different than regular Bibles?

Catholic and Protestant Bibles both include 27 books in the New Testament. Protestant Bibles have only 39 books in the Old Testament, however, while Catholic Bibles have 46. The seven books included in Catholic Bibles are Tobit, Judith, 1 and 2 Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach, and Baruch. Catholic Bibles also include sections in the Books of Esther and Daniel which are not found in Protestant Bibles. These books are called the deuterocanonical books. The Catholic Church believes these books to be inspired by the Holy Spirit.

This is false. The original Bible includes the epistle of James and it’s a pretty big deal because it implicitly clarify’s “faith without works is dead”. Kinda kills the whole “faith alone” tenet. You can’t just say you believe, you have to live like it too.
