Q. Are Catholics forbidden to read the Bible?

No! On the contrary, the Catholic Church encourages Catholics to read the Bible, for it is the inspired word of God.  Pope Pius XII, for example, urged Catholic families to read the Bible “daily with piety and devotion” (Divino Afflante Spiritu ─ 1943).  If some Catholics do not read the Bible, then they should.
