Hello,

I am converting a Romanian Orthodox Bible to OSIS and then to a SWORD module with osis2mod on Windows.

Command used:
osis2mod ..\roorthodox ..\biblia.xml -v Orthodox -z -b 4

I uploaded biblia.xml to my repo on GitHub:https://github.com/IonutOjicaDE/orthodox-bible-sword-builder/blob/main/sources/biblia.xml
The source text has been manually checked and its chapter/verse numbering appears correct for the Romanian Orthodox edition. However, osis2mod reports many v11n mismatches, especially in Exodus, Psalms, Jeremiah, Sirach, 1Esd, and some deuterocanonical books, and it ignores PrAzar.

My understanding from the CrossWire wiki is that Orthodox is based on LXX but has fewer books. Could you advise:
1) whether there is a better existing versification for this corpus,
2) whether some OSIS book IDs should be represented differently,
3) or whether a new canon/v11n definition would be appropriate?

The output of the command I uploaded here:https://github.com/IonutOjicaDE/orthodox-bible-sword-builder/blob/main/sources/osis2mod.output
Thank you in advance for your hint and attention.
Best regards,
Ionut Ojica
