YES you can do that
1. Highlight and right click the verse or right click the reference in the bible window
2. choose "copy verses" (not copy)
3. in the copy verses window make sure that "include translation name" is checked
4. then select number 4 or 6 on format
and that should give you what you have shown in example 1
from your post I read you already know how to do multiple verses did you know that in the bible window if you highlight multiple verse it will translates to the copy verses
for this to be example 2 in your post you need to set format in the copy verses window to number 6
I just checked and you can just leave format on 6 for both single and multiple verses

Before having replied to jrendlaw, I looked at option 6, and found that it doesn't quite meet the specificity or exactness what he wants. The two things that are not included is the full colon, that >>> : <<< thingy there, and the open/close parenthesis, that >>> () <<< thingy there.
If you take a closer look to what he is actually looking for, is that bit >>> (John 1:1 NKJV): <<< there. And what you get in Option #6 in e-Sword is this:
Romans 9:4 NKJV who are Israelites, to whom pertain the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service of God, and the promises;
Which really looks "Blurk."
Option #4 does only to a certain extent, in which the parenthesis are included, BUT (and that's a huge and massive "but") the format is just doesn't fully meet his standard on single verses. And when it comes to multiple verses, it totally craps right out.
Single verse on Option #4 looks like this:
(Romans 9:1 NKJV)
I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,
Multiple verses on Option #4 looks like this:
(Romans 9:1 NKJV)
I tell the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,
(Romans 9:2 NKJV)
that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart
of which he doesn't want.
You see, jrendlaw doesn't want to:
...manually putting them in...
And that's really where its at.
He wants:
to have e-Sword do it for me using a preset
And e-Sword doesn't have that preset format included.
And so, like I said:
In Short, No you can't.
And that's the way it is.
That said, I think it would be an easy fix on Option 6 for Rick to at least include the parenthesis on the initial reference. Whether to include the full colon, I don't think it would hurt, and tend to think that most would leave it there. Moreover, I do not think to have a totally new option included should be included is a good idea as that requires new code to be added, and so increases the actual size of the program - something of which (as a programmer) I am dead against.
I really love KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid).
Blessings,
