Bibel 2000 is a translation of the Bible into the Swedish language. The Bibel 2000 is the translation of Scripture approved for liturgical and devotional use in the Evangelical-Lutheran Church of Sweden. This full Evangelical-Lutheran translation of the Christian Bible includes a total of 77 books found in the Old Testament, the Apocrypha, and the New Testament. As the Church of Sweden held the status of a state church, Bibel 2000 was prepared through the Bible Commission set up by the Riksdag (Parliament). In addition to its liturgical usage in the Church of Sweden, Bibel 2000 is used ecumenically by other Christian denominations in Sweden, including the Catholic Church in Sweden. Bibel 2000 was published by Advent 1999, the start of the liturgical year. As a scholarly translation, Bibel 2000 contains several footnotes that explicate various verses. Upon publication, Libris bokförlag "printed more than 200,000 copies of the edition , more than ten times the normal print run for a new book."
