The Bible of Kralice, also called the Kralice Bible (), was the first complete translation of the Bible from its original languages into Czech. Translated by the Unity of the Brethren and printed in Kralice nad Oslavou, the first edition had six volumes and was published between 1579 and 1593. The third edition, published in 1613, is considered a classic and has remained through the modern day the most widely-known and commonly-used Czech translation of the Bible. The New Testament had previously been translated from Greek by Jan Blahoslav and published in 1564.
