Maybe this is a stupid question, but I'm curious. I know the Bible has been translated into many languages. How about other texts? No rude answers, please. I just want to know.

Buddhist canons have been translated into English, although there is much less emphasis placed on them than the Bible or the Quran.
The Quran is available in English, as are Hindu scriptures.
The Baha'i texts are available in English.
The Tibetan Book of the dead, the Tao Te Ching, and even some Shinto writings are available in English.
