Bookname translations are used by the Sword library.
I attached a German and a Korean version so you can see how it works.
Basically:
Section [Meta] contains the language abbreviation and encoding, which as to be 
UTF-8 for Arabic.
[Text] contains the full translations of the Booknames in the form 
	English bookname=Translation
[Book Abbrevs] contains the possible abbreviations for the books in english 
and your language in the form
	Abbreviation=Book number
The english ones have to remain in each language file.

The bookname locale files are stored in the locales.d/ subdir in the Sword 
installation directory (usually /usr/share/sword/).

I hope this helps you to do the translation into Arabic. The translation will 
be included in the next Sword library release.

That sounds cool.
Since Qt does well in Unicode handling a simple tool to translate those files 
would be great, I guess. E.g. a simple way to enter the translation and 
abbreviations for each bookname and it saves that into a .conf file. That 
tool could be used on Linux, Mac and Windows.
What do you think?

Thanks a lot for your willingnes to help!
Joachim
