I appreciate that it would be nice to have more Bibles available.
However, using the Bibles available for another Bible program has two major
drawbacks:
1. It is a lot of work (it's not even sure that we could do it).

2. I do not know all the details of the copyright agreements between the
copyright holders for each Bible and The Word, but it is quite possible
that we would end up in breach of these agreements. A number of years ago
we actually investigated compatibility with e-Sword modules. We believed
our actions to be 100% legal, but still abandoned the project when we were
threatened with legal action. Similar may well apply to The Word. Such
disputes do not help us, our users, or the developers and users of other
software we attempt to inter-operate with.

For both these reasons we will not be able to do anything with this request.
