Sources and attribution

Bible editions

The account app’s English library contains nine editions with distinct numbering systems. This public-reader collection uses WEB; the register does not mean that nine public readers are available. Source extraction keeps numbered verse text, punctuation, and within-verse breaks while omitting source presentation headings, unnumbered superscriptions, ordinary footnotes, and cross references. Five WEB markers contain notes rather than main text. The WEB doxology remains at Romans 14:24–26; it is not silently moved to Romans 16. The edition source records preserve these processing choices. CC BY-SA 4.0 requires credit, a license link, changes notice, and the same license for adaptations. Source conditions apply separately to each edition.

Original-language data

Word forms, parsing, surface transliteration, BSB renderings, and marked variants come from the imported public-domain Berean translation tables. Lexical lemmas, headword transliterations, classes, and glosses come from STEP Bible’s TBESH/TBESG data from the recorded source version, based on Tyndale House Cambridge work, under CC BY 4.0. Credit: STEP Bible.

Greek entries include available Abbott-Smith-based lexical ranges. The TBESH Hebrew Meaning column was excluded; Hebrew and Aramaic gloss pages do not reproduce a full BDB definition. Source occurrence language distinguishes Hebrew from Aramaic even where both use H-number keys.

Changes for Scripture Deck include selecting and transforming source fields and joining them to canonical verse identities. The current STEP repository usage clarification permits reuse and changes with recorded changes and linked credit; this is separate from the older pinned import and does not mean current upstream corrections were imported.

Alignments are a further layer: BSB links derive from Berean tables; KJV Strong’s-tag alignments retain their source notice; YLT alignments credit “Bible alignments by Clear Bible / Biblica, Inc.” under CC BY 4.0. WLCM © Clear Bible and STEP TAGNT carry their own CC BY 4.0 attribution. Clear Bible / Biblica alignments. Missing alignments are not reconstructed. The public WEB sample makes no word-by-word alignment promise.

Prayer wording and guides

English prayer pages retain the forms already present in Scripture Deck’s collection. Their named comparison sources establish similarities, differences, and devotional sequence; they do not establish a blanket public-domain status for every English wording. Material variants, including the Litany’s migrant and afflicted titles, are identified on the relevant page. Several exact sources remain unresolved, especially the short night prayers, shorter Morning Offering, and preparation prayer.

Primary comparison collections include the Vatican Compendium appendix, USCCB prayers, Vatican Litany, and Marian Fathers’ Chaplet. Their copyright and reproduction conditions are separate. No translation is reconstructed from memory or presented as universally official.

The Marian Fathers’ digital-use policy gives a limited one-time short-excerpt exception for nonprofit parish websites and requires written permission for other digital uses and applications. It also sets exact-text and permission-credit conditions. No site-specific grant or eligibility for that exception has been established for the retained forms here; permission remains pending.

Artwork

Artwork has source and reuse conditions separate from Scripture text. Credits identify the artist, work, and image source for displayed images; a text license does not license a picture. Original Scripture Deck diagrams are distinguished from reproductions of other works.

Editorial explanations

Scripture Deck’s explanations, reading questions, worked examples, and original reading-plan ordering are editorial additions. They are kept separate from Scripture, traditional prayer, and imported lexical excerpts. Source citation is not institutional endorsement. No named author or theological reviewer is claimed until that responsibility is assigned. The project has not selected a general distribution license for its original editorial content or application code.
