Aside:
Given that Roman numerals used for chapter numbers never exceed 150 and verse
numbers never exceed 176, it suffices to use a lookup table for the required
replacements in a Biblical source text.
That’s the approach I have used successfully when faced with this task. As
usual for me, it was implemented using DataMystic TextPipe Standard on my
Windows PC.
The method requires a whole word search with a restriction to the relevant
context pattern for the vernacular scripture references.
