The Menge text comes from
http://www.die-bibel.de/online-bibeln/menge-bibel/ueber-die-menge-bibel/

It may be Menge's own text, but it is equally possible that DBG has made 
changes to the text that would entitle them to copyright. DBG does claim 
copyright on the layout & formatting. Regardless of copyright, the site 
explicitly prohibits use like this.

MT was for the Zadoc Khan text. If Leningrad works, MT works. They're 
identical except with respect to book order and they were added 
simultaneously.
