whole world / under the heavens

The Greek and Hebrew that is translated as “under the heaven(s)” or “the whole world” in English is translated in the Protestant Mandarin Chinese Union Version with a historical Chinese idiom: pǔtiān zhīxià (普天之下) or “under heaven.” (Source: Toshikazu S. Foley in Hong Kong Journal of Catholic Studies, 2011, p. 45ff.)
