Bible Reading

Multi-Bible

Multi-Bible supports multilingual Bibles and lets you display several translations together in the text — grouped per verse or in split columns — or compare quickly in a popup with each verse’s “Multi” button.

Multi-Bible

Multilingual Bibles together in the text, or compared per verse in a popup

Multi-Bible supports multilingual Bibles. In the text you can view several translations together as a per-verse grouping (translations grouped under each verse) or as split columns; and because keeping them always expanded can reduce reading focus and screen space, you can normally keep the text concise and check selected translations in a popup with each verse’s “Multi” button.

01

Separate from in-text comparison

The in-text comparison setting decides which translations stay shown on screen. Multi-Bible is separate from that — a feature you open as a per-verse popup when needed.

02

Per-verse comparison

It shows the selected translations at once based on the verse you are reading, so you can check wording differences for that verse without expanding the whole chapter.

03

Personal settings

The translation set you compare often and its display order are prepared to be configured separately inside the Multi-Bible popup.

Reading Layout

In-text multi display — grouped per verse or split columns

In the Bible reading screen you can show several translations in the text in addition to the base translation. Two display modes are provided: per-verse grouping (translations grouped under a verse) and split columns. Multilingual translations can be viewed the same way; this is useful for whole-chapter comparison but can make the screen long, so turning on only as much as needed suits it.

Verse Popup

The Multi-Bible button

The Multi-Bible button complements the limits of the in-text comparison setting. You normally read in one translation, and when you wonder about wording differences across translations at a particular verse, you press the button to check them in a popup.

Version Set

Translations to compare and their order

Multi-Bible should let you save the translation set you view often. For example, you can build a personal set such as Korean Revised, KJV, WEB, and the original text, and set the display order yourself.

Use Case

When it is useful

For long chapters, read quickly centered on one translation and open Multi-Bible only at key verses or wordings you are curious about. It is useful for checking word-choice differences across translations while preparing sermons or meditating.

Mobile

A popup approach suits mobile better

Always expanding several translations on a mobile screen makes the text hard to read. So Multi-Bible suits a popup-centered flow where, even on small screens, you open and close only the verse you need.

Principle

Compare only when needed; keep reading light

The purpose of Multi-Bible is not to always show every translation, but to let readers compare instantly when they need to. Keep the basic reading screen light, and check per-verse comparisons quickly in a popup.
