[sword-devel] NRSV errors?

A little bit more detail that I discovered recently:

Diatheke produces 31085 lines instead of 31102

Every chapter from Galations to III John has a verse 0 inserted. (numbered 0
to n-1 instead of 1 to n)
Every chapter from Revelations 13 to 22 has a verse 0 but no verse 1.
