Summary description: Creates a DB of Bible verses from e-Sword, then

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This bundle provides two packages, bibpes and fetchbibpes. This pair of
packages was motivated by a friend, who was preparing Bible studies
lessons using a combination of the application e-Sword
(http://www.e-sword.net/) and LaTeX. He wanted a `database' of Bible
packages from which he could simply `fetch' passages into the LaTeX
source file.
What's new (2018/07/30) Bug fixes. Added the cfg option for specifying
a custom contiguration file. New commands showTranslAlways,
showTranslDecld, ranslFmt, ranslTxtFmt, and cobblevrs. All
documented in the manual. NOTE: The format for the CFG file has
changes, you will need to update to this new syntax; refer to Section
3.8 of the manual and to fbpes.cfg for an example.
