(et) I shortened the book names.  Some people feel the need to include 
full book names like "The Book of Ruth" or "The Revelation of John" 
instead of more familiar short forms, Ruth and Revelation,

files, but let's ignore it for this release.

"Hakim" means judge--definitely incorrect.  "Hakim hakim" would be 
closer (though still inorrect), but might be interpreted as "judge judge".

(pl) I made a lot of changes & corrections here, but I don't know 
whether they will fix anything.  Give it a try and let us know if 
there's still a problem.
