the Clementine Vulgate (Clementine Vulgate Project / M. Tweedale, CBCEW-
authorized, public domain) and the Douay-Rheims (Challoner), public domain.
+Eight further verses absent from drb (Genesis 27:23, Exodus 9:21, Job 32:18,
+Job 40:4 and 40:25-28) were taken from the same get.bible douayrheims text,
+which that API records as "Public Domain". Baruch 6:37 is absent from drb and

+Scripture corpora — wuj (Polish)
+--------------------------------
+The bulk of the Wujek corpus -- the great majority of its 35,810 verses -- was
+harvested from biblia.info.pl's Biblia Jakuba Wujka (scripts/scrape-wujek.py),
+a public-domain text. Chapter and verse structure was then repaired against the
+Clementine Vulgate; the corpus now carries exactly the Vulgate's verse set.
+
+Roughly 300 verses are NOT from that source and NOT public domain: the 286 in
+the passages listed below, which biblia.info.pl does not carry at all, plus a
+few dozen scattered single verses it omits. They come from
+
+ Pismo Święte Starego i Nowego Testamentu w przekładzie polskim
+ W. O. Jakuba Wujka S. J., tekst poprawił ks. Stanisław Styś S.J.
+ Kraków, Wydawnictwo Apostolstwa Modlitwy, 1962
+
+Wujek's translation itself is public domain, but ks. Styś died in 1959, so his
+revision remains in copyright in Poland (70 years p.m.a.) until the end of
+2029. It is used here by permission obtained from the publisher for this
+project. That permission is NOT a general licence: anyone redistributing this
+corpus, or shipping a "fullbible" binary, needs their own.
+
+The passages concerned are the deuterocanonical portions biblia.info.pl does
+not carry at all, plus one single verse:
+
+ Daniel 3:31-100 70 the Prayer of Azariah and the Song of the Three
+ Daniel 13 65 Susanna
+ Daniel 14 42 Bel and the Dragon

+Scripture corpora — grb (Greek)
+-------------------------------
+Derived from grb (https://github.com/lukesmithxyz/grb) by
+scripts/gen-grb-lectio.py, which restricts it to the 73 books of the Vulgate
+canon. Upstream carries 87 books; the eleven with no Vulgate counterpart are
+dropped and five that ARE canonical under other names are remapped (Daniel and
+Susanna and Bel in Theodotion's version, which is the one Jerome translated;
+the Letter of Jeremiah as Baruch 6; Wisdom of Solomon as Wisdom).

+2006; but the Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft asserts rights over its editions, the
+2006 editio altera (Hanhart) is a separate later work, and get.bible records
+the same text as "Copyrighted; Free non-commercial distribution". Treat the

Scripture corpora — embedding and licence
-----------------------------------------
The bible corpora are NOT covered by lectio's AGPL licence. They are separate
-public-domain scripture texts, each with its own provenance, redistributed under
-its own terms:
+third-party scripture texts, each with its own provenance and its own terms.
+They are not uniformly public domain -- see the sections above for detail:
- vul Latin Vulgate (Clementine), public domain.
- wuj Biblia Jakuba Wujka (1599), Polish, public domain.
- drb Douay-Rheims (Challoner), English, public domain.
- grb Greek Septuagint / New Testament, public domain.
+ vul Latin Vulgate (Clementine). Public domain.
+ drb Douay-Rheims (Challoner). Public domain.
+ wuj Biblia Jakuba Wujka. Public domain EXCEPT ~300 verses from the
+ 1962 Styś revision, in copyright until the
+ end of 2029 and used here by permission
+ granted for this project only.
+ grb Greek. New Testament CC BY 4.0 (SBLGNT,
+ attribution required). Old Testament
+ Rahlfs' Septuagint, licence unsettled.
Only the Latin Vulgate (internal/bible/corpora/vul.tsv) is embedded in the
default binary, so a build carries no third-party scripture text beyond the
