The French reply in Martin's message reads,

"Your answer and the link that you send us gives us no solution, gentlemen
developers, correct just the chapter and verses contain errors, this is the
right choice and make an effort, thank you"

The background is the well known difference in numbering Psalms between
Hebrew and Greek editions. See

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psalms#Numbering

Among our various defined v11n's, several follow the Greek numbering system
for Psalms.

Of course, for any technical solution to be made by creating suitable French
Bible v11ns (plural), Martin would need to ensure that And Bible fully
supports ALL Alternate Versifications and content.

A further related problem is this: 

CrossWire grabs Bible text source from wherever it's legally usable.
In many cases, the available text has already been "squeezed" artificially
into the default KJV v11n.
i.e. By web-masters who have not themselves address the underlying issues.

Best regards,

David
