About years

John Nelson Darby did the initial French translation. The New Testament was first published in 1859. He did some corrections in editions published in 1872, 1875 and 1878. The Old Testament was first published in 1885 (he died in 1882).

The last printed edition was done in 1975; a major change was to update chapter number from roman numerals to arabic numerals. There is no known significant modification in all the editions done since Darby's death.

Bibliquest

The Text Source is from Bibliquest. There are two whole Bible downloads available from Bibliquest:

• HTML format
• MS Word format.

Skc (maintainer of FreJND) developped a tool to convert the text source (encoded in HTML) into the OSIS format, available on koocotte.org/darby. Last update 2014-12-30.

Versification

French Bibles generally have versification differences compared to the KJV. The current module specifies NRSV versification in the conf file. The output from emptyvss indicates that there is still a real issue that needs fixing:

Leviticus 6:24-30
Numbers 12:16
I Samuel 23:29
Job 38:39-41
Job 41:26-34
Psalms 13:6
Ezekiel 20:45-49
Hosea 11:12
Jonah 1:17
Matthew 23:14
Acts 8:37
Acts 15:34
II Corinthians 13:14

Many of these are locations detailed in [1]. The verses in Matthew & Acts are listed in [2].

As a consequence of the versification differences, some chapters have text from further verses appended to the last numbered verse in the chapter. Example: Ezekiel 21:32 has an extra paragraph of text. This kind of appending is done automatically by osis2mod.

After SWORD 1.8 is released, the module could be recompiled using French-Darby versification.
