I have 2 raw text files and they look like this:

 

KJV+Strong’s:

Mat 1:1 The book G976 of the generation G1078 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547, the son G5207 of David G1138, the son G5207 of Abraham G11.

 

MAV+Strong’s:

Mat 1:1 The scroll G976 of the generation G1078 of YESHUA G2424 haMashiach G5547, the Son G5207 of David G1138, the Son G5207 of Avraham G11.

 

And I want to create my own interlinear Bible to look like this:

 

 

G976

G1078

G2424

G5547

1

The scroll

of the generation

of YESHUA

haMashiach,

 

The book

of the generation

of Jesus

Christ,

 

G5207

G1138

G5207

G11

the Son

of David,

the Son

of Avraham.

the son

of David,

the son

of Abraham.

 

Notice how this may be done by placing the text into cells of a table, however it is easier said than done, because the text will have to wrap at some point and not necessarily where the verse ends.

 

Logically, it doesn’t seem too difficult, since both texts are tagged with the same Strong’s numbers, but I still can’t figure out how to make it happen.

There is very limited info about it online. Some say it would have to be a macro (couldn't find one), others say there is glossing software that does it (couldn't find it either).

 

Any help or guiding me in the right direction perhaps with a macro or software will be appreciated. (I don’t know how to use macros but I’m willing to learn).

Thanks & Shalom!

What if you created an e-Sword bible from each raw text file, so that you have two separate Bibles.

 

Then, you could use the Compare or Parallel features to read them together, almost in the tabular format you describe?

Yes, that was a great idea to make use of the Parallel feature on e-Sword, but I don't know to export from Gen 1:1 to Rev 22:21.

(Of course abiding by Copyright laws). But still, from what I see, it oly let's you export/copy/paste 1 chapter at a time. Or am I missing something?
