BUG: Errors in inline Strongs Numbers

Hello;

looking at the KJV version, with inline strongs numbers, I came across an error.

Daniel 4:17 the phrase "the basest of men" if you look up the inline strongs # it gives you 6966 'appoint, establish, make, raise up self' etc.  However, that should be the word for 'setteth' in the phrase 'setteth up over it' previously in the verse, which appears to be Strongs # 8215 in the inline text.  These words are somehow switched.

It didn't make sense to me so I cross referenced my hardcopy of strongs, and my e-sword, and they both agree.

 

How many other errors are there like this?  I am constantly using software like this to look up greek and hebrew words, but just a few weeks of using this program give me this glaring error.

    Benjamin - I concur that there is an error. It may be that an update has shifted the info. The error appears to only be in the resources shown in the screen shot below. If you use another version of the KJV, I think you will find them correct. If you can, you should adjust your subject line of this thread to include "BUG:"

    This error also occurs in the Cambridge Paragraph Bible (AV1873) but NOT in NKJV. The Libronix version of the KJV (Authorized Version, 1995) got it right!

    How many other errors are there like this? 

    Please report this and any other errors via email to revint@logos.com (quote this thread for this error).
