I likely wouldn't go for it because I wonder it's value for me, since almost all ESV changes to the RSV were already incorporated into "The Holy Bible, Revised Standard Version; Second Catholic Edition" which we already have in Verbum.

I hope this means some of the other joint offerings of the Augustine Institute / Ignatius series might also be on the horizon...

I know it re-translates Tobit relative to the ESV.

For those interested, Dr. Mark Giszczak has a really in-depth look at the ESV-CE compared to the RSV-2CE here:

1 * The book of the words of Tobit son of Tobiel, son of Ananiel, son of Aduel, son of Gabael, son of Raphael, son of Raguel, of the descendants of Asiel from the tribe of Naphtali, 2 who in the days of Shalmaneser1, the king of the Assyrians, was taken into captivity from Thisbe, which is to the south2 of Kedesh of Naphtali in Upper Galilee above Asher to the west, north3 of Phogor.
* Tobit is one of the seven deuterocanonical books that do not exist in their entirety in Hebrew or Aramaic, but which were included in the Greek Septuagint, and were likewise included in the Latin Vulgate version of the Bible translated by Jerome in the late fourth century AD. See further, Introduction, pages xv to xvi.

So there is differences too from the Oxford ESVa [as found in Logos via the Lutheran Study Apocrypha ] and ESV-CE which is ok just thought I would share as I wasn't sure if the CE was using Oxford or not. From the copyright page it appears the Oxford may have been the base but in 2017 a revision was released (not surprising since the ESV has undergone a few itself over the years.

The ESVCE's translation of Tobit is unique to it, because the ESVCE does not use the same strategy re:manuscripts of Tobit as does the ESV.
