Yeah, I've been looking into them recently, which is why I thought it would be nice to have them in the sword library, seeing they don't come in the translation I prefer. 

But, knowing they exist, doesn't get me the data. :D 

Thanks.

Such Bibles definitely exist, eg

Would anyone have a clue where to get this chronological information? I just need the information, so I can parse it and use it. I mean, I could go through my whole bible by hand, and create it, but that would take a very long time, and I'm not sure about the copyright issues of doing that.
