Apocrypha? In the Catholic Bible
I think someone's been misleading you a we bit... But seriosuly I wish the Apocrypha was included... it'd surely add some spice to religion class - although I'm not sure the trade off of having another 28+ books is worth it... but as far as I know there is little to no difference between the major Bibles other than translation (and creative editting).
Looking at the older Latin texts, trying to find Replenish, I couldn't find a reference to it... so maybe it was added in during the KJV as a nod to Mercantalist beliefs?
Oh in case you are interested in Apocrypha... this website has a nice catalog of them:
