Strange Copying/Pasting

Ellen Smyth

I copy and paste all the time from Logos but have never encountered something quite like this. In copying from the end of Haggai and pasting, the text actually changes. Scary. I thought, no problem, I'll just use the NIV instead of the ESV. Same thing. The text literally changed in the middle.

Here is what get's pasted:

“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I am about to shake the heavens and the earth, and to overthrow the throne of kingdoms. On that day, declares the Lord of hosts, I will take you, O Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel riders. And the horses and their riders shall go down, every one by the sword of his brother. On that day, declares the Lord of hosts, I will take you, O Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel, declares the Lord, and make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you, declares the Lord of hosts.”

But here is how the original text reads:

“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I am about to shake the heavens and the earth, and to overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I am about to destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations, and overthrow the chariots and their riders. And the horses and their riders shall go down, every one by the sword of his brother. On that day, declares the Lord of hosts, I will take you, O Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel, declares the Lord, and make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you, declares the Lord of hosts.”

The word changes to the NIV were a bit different but in approximately the same spot with the same sorts of repetition. Thanks!

Apologies for me being unable to replicate word change (copy from 29.0 with paste into forum editor).

ESV => Copy Verses: Text Only

“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I am about to shake the heavens and the earth, and to overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I am about to destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations, and overthrow the chariots and their riders. And the horses and their riders shall go down, every one by the sword of his brother. On that day, declares the Lord of hosts, I will take you, O Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel, declares the Lord, and make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you, declares the Lord of hosts.”
