Βιβλίο (vivlio) in Greek means 'Book', the letter 'B' is pronounced 'V' . As early as the 14th century, christian orthodox scriptures were referred to as Τα άγια βιβλία (ta agia vivlia)/The holy books. The word came to Latin in full-form but then the letters 'B' and 'I' adjusted to the Latin, and later the English, pronunciation . ΒΙΒΛΙΟ/BIBLE
