The import tools, including osis2mod, have a very simple algorithm for handling verses that they does not recognize as canonical KJV verses. They attach them to the previous valid KJV verse, following an identification of the verse number in the native (non-KJV) versification scheme.

So:
1) No information is ever lost.
2) If you query a non-KJV verse, the prior valid KJV verse will be returned, meaning you will still get the content you queried, just with some other stuff presumably preceding it. 3) No re-versification or versification normalization/standardization is occurring. If it were, you'd see verses from non-KJV reference schemes being placed in the verse with the same content in the KJV. This is (for better or worse, since it does have its advantages) the kind of thing you find in some OLB modules.

Hi,
I also have several issues with osis2mod, and I was getting ready to post. The fact is that there are several versification schemes for both Old and New Testaments. I was having a similar problem with re-versification in Tischendorf's Greek New Testament. It has John 1:52, because an earlier verse is sub-divided. But it also has 3John 15 and Rev 12:18, which agrees with UBS 4. How can we get osis2mod to recognize true variations in versification, and not "standardize" everything? Peace,

David
