bibel

Read the Word of God from your terminal

This is the Einheitsübersetzung from 1980. Footnotes are included and are always listed immediately after the verse.

Code largely based off of https://github.com/bontibon/kjv.git. Luke Smith (lukesmith.xyz) brought my attention to this software via a video of his.
