My edition has the Vulgate, a Greek version, King James, and Luther. The Luther translation is in Gothic font, probably in  Schwabacher rather than the Fraktur which was standard in Germany in 1900. It is surprisingly hard to find a key to it on the web. There are lots of presentations of it, all pretty  bad (they don&#8217;t help with terminal vs ordinary S, for example). <\/p>\n<p>A pretty good article is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tug.org\/TUGboat\/tb12-1\/tb31hara.pdf\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Typesetting Old German: Fraktur, Schwabacher, Gotisch and Initials,&#8221; <\/a>by  Yannis Haralambous, U.
