To reproduce the problem:

Open Brannan, Rick, Ken M. Penner, Michael Aubrey, Israel Loken, and Isaiah Hoogendyk. The Lexham English Septuagint. Second Edition. Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2020.
Go to 1 Enoch 8:1 (or any other reference in 1 Enoch)
Open Context Menu (with right click)
On the left side, select reference
On the right side, select Passage Guide
Close LES2
Go to the reference/navigation box, add a - to change to a range of verses.
Observe that the box changes from CAP Enoch to Enoch and shows a grayed out Sirach

There is something going on between the default NRSV and the LES2 as the results, even the original reference in the Passage Guide being CAP Enoch or Enoch, are not consistent. However, I am able to consistently produce the error in 1-3 tries.

"Enoch 8:1-" is not a valid reference, so it is attempting to find pericope titles that are somewhat close to what you have typed. In this case, it's finding the pericope titled "Enoch" in the English Standard Version Catholic Edition located at Sirach 44:16.

"Enoch 8:1-" is not a valid reference,

Yes, I know. But if I type Genesis 8:1- it knows I am giving a reference not a pericope title and simply waits for me to finish. If I type CAP Enoch 8:1- it knows I am giving a reference not a pericope title. But it randomly goes between CAP Enoch and Enoch i.e. the application changed from CAP Enoch to Enoch ... and between looking for a pericope title (as you say) and a reference. It is as if CAP Enoch and 1 Enoch are consistently treated as a Bible reference but Enoch is unpredictable.

That's not what it is doing. It knows it's not a valid reference, and it goes looking for a matching periope and doesn't find one.

If I type CAP Enoch 8:1- it knows I am giving a reference not a pericope title.

It actually doesn't. It knows it's not a valid reference. It goes looking for a matching pericope, and the text is sufficiently different from the pericope title that it doesn't return it as a possible result.

But it randomly goes between CAP Enoch and Enoch i.e. the application changed from CAP Enoch to Enoch ...

I can't recreate this. It's possibly dependent on the prioritization of your Bibles. A video might help.

It is as if CAP Enoch and 1 Enoch are consistently treated as a Bible reference but Enoch is unpredictable.

It should be entirely dependent on whether or not the current text can be parsed as a valid reference.

Sounds to me like Enoch behaves differently because it is a pericope title. I'll see if I can find a similar case to test.
