FYI in Sword, this is in swmgr.cpp:
const char *SWMgr::globalConfPath =
"/etc/sword.conf:/usr/local/etc/sword.conf";
/etc/sword.conf references /usr/share/sword by default. Typically,
though, this is unused, module installation tending toward being a
personal matter.

And so then $HOME/.sword is also checked in swmgr.cpp.

Along the way, $SWORD_PATH is handled.

OS-specific hackery includes the Windows check:
    // for various flavors of windoze...
    // check %ALLUSERSPROFILE%/Application Data/sword/

No mention of Android in the code, but it's Linux, except that I'm not
aware that $HOME means anything in Android...

Don't neglect that SWMgr's general goal is the amalgamation of all
discovered module areas, e.g. you can have modules in both
/usr/share/sword and ~/.sword. I don't know the rules for precedence in
that case, if e.g. kjv.conf is found in each.

This is all in Sword. No clues about JSword's habits.
