As I recall, the copy of the Estonian Bible that we used as the basis for that module was incomplete and had some errors. Only Genesis, Psalms, and I believe either the gospels or the whole NT were available. If you know of a better version, please alert us.

The repeated verses are a sign that the module was built with an old version of one of our tools, which would copy the previous verse into following verses that are empty. It is confusing to the user, but there is nothing missing from the module that was present in our source.

I wanted to alert you that the Estonian Bible module (Est) seems to have
some serious errors in the Old Testament.

Genesis seems to be all right, but from Exodus to Job, the same text is
repeated on every verse:
"Kui Jaakob oli oma poegadele käsu andnud, siis ta sirutas voodis oma
jalad välja ja heitis hinge; ja ta koristati oma rahva juurde."

Psalms seems to have many of its lines truncated.

And Proverbs to Malachi have a different text that is repeated on every
verse.
"et saata täide kirjutatud kohtuotsus! See on auks k"

So basically the only book in the OT that is any good is Genesis.  I don't
know enough about the format of the files to tell if perhaps all the text
is in there, and just a markup problem is causing this result, or if the
text was not imported properly.

As far as I could tell from a quick scan, the New Testament does not have
the same kinds of problems.
