#29292 NIV 1984 Red Letter Bible

Posted by WynApse on 27 October 2016 - 04:30 PM in Modules In Progress

I just got off the phone with the copyright person at Biblica and the answer is no...

 

So... it'll be personal use then... was hoping to give back to e-Sword... but if you can't, you can't.

 

Should have done that before starting this thread :)

 

now to figure out how to tag it differently




#29290 NIV 1984 Red Letter Bible

Posted by WynApse on 27 October 2016 - 04:07 PM in Modules In Progress

Well guess I'll write them... figured I'd have to somewhere along the way. Like I said, this is going to take most of a year, so I have time.

 

I'm wondering though if that copyright is a tad different now that the 2011 version is out and nobody is producing NIV84 in any form anymore.

 

I'll find out before I do anything beyond personal use.

 

Thanks!




#29283 NIV 1984 Red Letter Bible

The NIV is a premium or pay module downloadable through the download section of E-Sword

 

yes it is, and I've bought it... but that's the 2011 version... my wife prefers the 1984 and while searching across the web, I see other people looking for that version in a portable format as well.

 

It might not be something a lot of people want, but will at least allow me to continue using e-Sword while reading with my wife :)




#29281 NIV 1984 Red Letter Bible

Posted by WynApse on 27 October 2016 - 10:03 AM in Modules In Progress

I looked around to see if the 1984 version of NIV was available, and couldn't find it. If it's there and I missed it, rescue me from doing this :)

 

If I can't figure out if the text source is public domain or who to credit, this will end up being for personal use, but I started it 2 days ago.

 

I'm thinking if I stay a day ahead of my personal "Read the Bible in a Year", then it should take the better part of a year to complete, energetic spurts of work notwithstanding.
