Hebrew is the primary original language for the Old Testament. Small portions of the Old Testament are original in Aramaic. The original language for the New Testament is Greek.
The Bible has been translated in many many (thousands?) of languages.

Who knows! We are certain that the supposed author of the bible Jesus never spoke in hebrew or greek. Many are so ignorant that Jesus spoke aramaic. Many Pastors and fathers are so ignorant of this and this is a vital foundation to this religion- if i may call it so.
If you are now concerned about the number of languages they -the bible tumblers and writers and interpolators- then thats a question for the pope. So go ask the Pope

Hebrew and Greek were the original languages. It has been translated from these two languages into most of the languages in use today.
