I presume that you file is well-formed XML and valid OSIS. That is not 
what this warning is about.

When ever it complains that a particular verse, in isolation, is not 
well formed, it is saying that the verse has a begin tag without a 
matching end tag or an end tag without a corresponding being tag.

This warning serves to indicate that the verse will have problems 
displaying in some front-ends.

If you can provide me, privately if needed, with the text  to Rom 3, 
I'll be able to pinpoint it.

We have identified a bunch of changes to osis2mod and I think one of 
them will make this warning go away.
