[sword-devel] Diatheke - Psalm heading

[brickviking]

If you think that's bad, I just got this when I tried it for five of the
modules I have here:

Psalms 23:1: The LORD  is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Psalms 23:2: He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside
the still waters.
Psalms 23:3: He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
Psalms 23:4: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil; For You  are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they
comfort me.
Psalms 23:5: You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.
Psalms 23:6: Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my
life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever.
(NKJV)
Okay so far.

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:1: The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:2: He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me
beside the still waters.
A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:3: He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name’s sake.
A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:4: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they
comfort me.
A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:5: Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine
enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:6: Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my
life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
(KJV)
Definitely weird.

Psalms 23:1:  The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
Psalms 23:2: He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside
quiet waters,
Psalms 23:3: he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Psalms 23:4: Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they
comfort me.
Psalms 23:5: You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Psalms 23:6: Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my
life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
(NIV)

Again, quite okay. I don't know how the Front Matter was defined for Psa 23
in that version, if there even was any.

 A Psalm of David.
 Psalms 23:1:
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
 A Psalm of David.
 Psalms 23:2:
He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.
 A Psalm of David.
 Psalms 23:3:
He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness For His
name’s sake.
 A Psalm of David.
 Psalms 23:4:
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no
evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
 A Psalm of David.
 Psalms 23:5:
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You have
anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.
 A Psalm of David.
 Psalms 23:6:
Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
(NASB)

Definitely "more" broken.

And for the ESV:

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:1: The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:2: He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:3: He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:4: Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:5: You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

A Psalm of David.
Psalms 23:6: Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.


(ESV)

I'm sure there's got to be a way to fix that, at least. It doesn't happen
for my NKJV module nor the NIV module, which are both created by myself.
