Android: Compare Bible Versions or View Versions in Parallel

Looking at a Bible passage in multiple Bible Versions can help you understand it better, give you a different perspective, and even help you see things you didn’t notice before. Compare Bible Versions displays these comparisons as a list. Parallel Mode lets you see lengthier passages, two versions at a time, and compare them side by side.
