Hmm, 'basons' was in my text too, so perhaps it was an antiquated word chosen by Brenton. Regardless, I'm working with your LXX2012 text, which has already had some of the more archaic language improved, so will stick with the change.<div>

I've turned it into a sword module, and will keep working on improvements, including comparing it to the text I had. Let me know and I'll give you FTP details where you can install the modules directly.</div><div>

<div>Yes, please do feel free to use the
text I have posted on eBible.org, if you like. If you find errors
in it, please let me know so that I can correct them. I have found
some by comparing a couple of different sources, but there may
still be a few typos/OCR errors. If you have done some work
preparing text of the Brenton LXX, you might try comparing it to
what I posted to see if there are any errors revealed in that
process. This is a good way to redeem the work you have already
done. Proofreading is hard. For proof of that, try searching for
"statue" in some electronic copies of the ASV (other than the one
at <a href="http://eBible.org/asv/" target="_blank">http://eBible.org/asv/</a>), and see if it shouldn't actually be
"statute". <span><span> :-) </span></span><br>
<br>
The LXX2012 is a spelling-updated version of the Brenton
translation, with numerous substitutions like "hath"->"has"
done.<br>
<br>
Enjoy!<br>

<div>This is going to make things go much quicker. Though I have
already spent some effort building source text, haven't pride
enough to stop me from using Michaels text instead, which as far
as I can tell has fewer errors.</div>

If so, then Andrew should be made aware that Michael Johnson
is working on a<br>
modernized English LXX.<br>
