Scripture Library
The whole texts behind the five Scripture Scroller apps: every passage in its original language with English, one JSON file per book. Free to read, and each file carries its own source and licence.
Format: {book, title, sub, credit, order, titles, sections: {section: [{ref, orig, tr, en}]}}. Voice assistants can read them a passage at a time through the Scripture Scroller APIs.
