<p>It is better to handle a bible which has different numbering verse on the Second Bible.</p>
<p>Japanese bible "The New Interconfessional Translation" or French "La Bible du Semeur" has different verse number. Some verses are swapped.</p>
<p>For example, Malachie chapter 3 has 24 verses. The verses 3:19 to 3:24 are similar to 4:1-4:6 in other bibles including NIV:</p>
book JA NIV
mal 3:19 4:1mal 3:20 4:2mal 3:21 4:3mal 3:22 4:4mal 3:23 4:5mal 3:24 4:6
<p>And some verses are split an swapped and verse number has non-digit character.</p>
book JA NIVexo 21:37 22:1exo 22:2b 22:3bexo 22:3 22:4exo 22:1 22:2exo 22:2a 22:3aexo 22:4 22:5exo 22:5 22:6
<p>The first one (different numbering) is easy to handle, just have a table to convert chapter/verse number.</p>
<p>But I have no idea how to handle the second (split/swap).</p>
