Saint Jerome is the patron saint of translators and languages.

He would support translating Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John
into as many languages as possible.

Spread the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Where do we read in God's word about patron saints of this, that and the other thing?

We don't need Jerome to support the translation of the bible (not just Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) into languages that don't yet have it. Those involved in such work, like the Wycliff Bible Translators, certainly need God's help. Their website is: Home - Wycliffe Bible Translators if you are interested in such work.

He was the one who translated the Bible into the Latin vulgate. He is famously quoted as saying “Ignorance of scripture is ignorance of Christ.”
