Very nice. I love the ESV translation. If you're into minimal Bible versions and old-school protocols, here's my ESV Bible on gopher:

gopher://gopher.black/1/bible

Ahhh the simple TXT days of gopher. I always appreciated gopher and hate more wasn't done with it. Thank you for this!
If you're content with the KJV, John Walker of Autodesk fame has it available at https://www.fourmilab.ch/ under “Books on-line.”

I'm not linking to it directly, because his site is a candy store that deserves exploring.

How can I access that?
"curl gopher://gopher.black/1/bible/Jonah/jonah-1.txt"

"echo -n /bible/Jonah/jonah-1.txt | nc gopher.black 70"

Very cool ^
