From Wikipedia: Quote:
His chief literary work was a Latin translation of the Bible from the Hebrew and Syriac. The New Testament translation appeared in 1569, at Geneva. The five parts relating to the Old Testament were published at Frankfort-on-the-Main between 1575 and 1579, in London in 1580, and in numerous later editions. The work was joint with Franciscus Junius (the elder), his son-in-law. This translation was favoured by John Milton[2]. It was used also by John Donne for his version of Lamentations[3].
Tremellius also translated into Hebrew John Calvin's Catechism (Paris, 1551), and wrote a "Chaldaic" and Syriac grammar (Paris, 1569).
