v1.4.3, 12.11.2021

[Change] Show help text if no reference is given at the command line.

v1.4.2, 5.11.2021

[Fix] Fix so that script will use user's selected Ruby installation, rather than the default one, which at least on macOS is very out-dated.

v1.4.1, 28.5.2021

[Fix] Fixed Crossref markers were being truncated to a single character after the 26th Crossref.

v1.4.0, 1.2.2021

[Change/New] Add --boldwords option to turn on Markdown bold for the words of Jesus. This is now off by default.
[New] Add --newline option to start chapters and verses on a new line that starts with an H5 or H6 heading

v1.3.0, 29.12.2020

[New] Add ability to parse and show cross-references (or suppress with -r option), as seen in NIV and ESV versions, for example.
[New] Handle the unusual (unique?) multi-verse numbering in the MSG version.

v1.2.1, 2.12.2020

[Improve] The reference term is concatenated to remove spaces, meaning it doesn't need to be 'quoted'. It does not yet support multiple passages.

v1.2.0, 20.7.2020

[Fix] major underlying changes to cope with significant changes at BibleGateway.com
