LibreBible is the public Bible and study-resource data project behind Libre Study, GracePress Bible Tooltip, and related tools. This technical repo is named libre-bible-data.

This repo does not treat third-party Bible texts as ours. Each resource starts with a source manifest that records upstream location, license status, source format, checksum, importer, generated package paths, and update-check metadata.

Current Translation Resources

Current packaged English translations include:

asv-eng-asv: American Standard Version 1901 from eBible.org, public domain, with embedded Strong's links.
kjv-eng-kjv2006: King James Version from eBible.org, public domain outside UK Crown/Cambridge printing restrictions, with embedded Strong's links.
net-engnet: NET Bible package with licensing restrictions recorded in its source manifest.

Workflow

npm run check
npm run import:asv

Repo Rules

Every hosted text needs a source manifest.
Every source manifest needs license metadata.
If redistribution is not clearly allowed, do not commit generated text.
Generated packages must include checksums and importer metadata.
Update checks should be mechanical: fetch upstream, hash it, compare with the recorded checksum, and report drift.

See CONVENTIONS.md for durable project rules and ROADMAP.md for the implementation path.
