[sword-devel] Verse mapping information

[Chris Little]

No, we don't have this information. There are very few translations for 
which this type of data would be accurate, and almost all of those 
simply use the KJV versification (or the NRSV/GNT versification). Almost 
all translations with non-KJV/NRSV versifications vary in slight and 
idiosyncratic ways.

We could likely create this data and reliably map between the KJV(A), 
NRSV(A), MT/Leningrad, and *maybe* the Luther versifications, because 
those are based on individual documents. Even those mappings would not 
necessarily be reliable for other translations that claim to use those 
systems.
