The description from apt for the verse package is this:
Description: Daily Devotional Verse from KJV Bible
Verse displays a Bible Verse on each login. A verse from the King James
Version of the Bible is assigned to each day.
However, today I noticed the following discrepancy:
verse output for today (20041219):
$ verse
"And the angel said to her, " Do not be afraid, Mary;
for you have found favor with God. And behold, you
will conceive in your womb, and bear a son, and you
shall name Him Jesus." Luke 1:30,31
bible-kjv output for same verses:
$ bible lu1:30,31
Luke 1
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found
favour
with God.31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and
shalt call his name JESUS. Clearly, the two do not match. I am wondering why the description for verse says its verses are from the KJV. I have check my KJV Bible and the language matches only the output from the bible-kjv package. Judging by the language, the verse package is using a NKJV text. Could someone verify that (I don't own a NKJV Bible)? If that is the case, shouldn't the description be updated to reflect the correct version of the Bible it uses? Regards, -Roberto Sanchez
