I often use the Text Comparison tool to see how a particular verse or passage is represented in all of my English Bibles, for the express purpose of finding the best rendering of it for my purposes when I want to quote it.

But I have 53 English Bibles. It would be very helpful to be able to filter the results sometimes. For example, in this case I'd like to find all version that render the text in question using the word "weak" (as opposed to "powerless") because I'm looking to copy this quote to use for a card for someone who is in the hospital undergoing cancer treatment, and "weak" just sounds more apt under the circumstances.

Bascially, I'd like to be able to use Ctrl+F to filter the results. Whether you do it by highlighting the words that match or filtering it to only show the verses that match is immaterial. I just want a quicker way to be able to find these verses than having to visually scan the whole list myself:

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
