I think transparent mapping has been for a while now included in the library. I am not sure how to make it work, but I do think it is there and functioning. <br><br>Peter<br><br>Sent from my mobile.

The reversification material gives details of how to map LXX, MT and Vulgate schemes on to NRSVA (and also addresses some other schemes which are perhaps less frequently encountered). It also caters for common variants which basically follow one of these schemes, but which have certain verses split up into subverses.

The result is for example that tags that were assigned to verses of an English translation still show up correctly for the verses in a German translation.
