Dear Phylis:
There are but 66 (as numbered by most Versions) in the Bible, not 80.
The 14 apocryphal books that used to be in the King James, have been
removed. Only the Catholic version retains them, but they don't have a
very good translation. I recommend The Concordant Literal Version and
Rotherham's Emphasized Bible.
God be with you,
Ray
