When installing OpenLP 1.9.5 or up, the First Time Use Wizard installs a number of public domain bibles in several languages if you are installing while connected to the internet.
Furthermore, if the presentation computer has a connection with the internet, then you can use the online bibles. I understand the text is downloaded and saved on the computer as you search passages in the Bible module in the media manager.
And then there are complete bibles available in various formats, that OpenLP's Bible import wizard can convert. One such format is OpenSong, and there are a number of versions available for download at http://www.opensong.org/d/downloads#bible_translations.
I have followed your instructions to upload the Bible translations I need from opensong.org/d/download#bible but then when try to upload to open song it requests copyright and name. I tried downloading from web and clicked download list but no list comes up. I used to be able to download Bibles from here but no longer. Somehow my NIV translation was deleted now I am trying to upload it again. HELP
