You could copy a book, and sell it. This was a big part of the Protestant revolution; the Catholic church didn't want the common people reading the Bible, but back then they had no legal way to control how people used the printing press.
The Bible is not copyrighted. So you could still do that today.
Also I‘m pretty sure the catholic church wanted no one to read the Luther Bible. Neither common people nor others ;)
The copyright to the King James Version is owned by the crown.
Apparently that’s true (in the UK).
Specific translations, such as the NIV, are copyrighted.
