- cross_references.json and cross_references.csv: each verse and the verses it points to (39,774 rows).
Columns: book, chapter, verse, to_book, to_chapter, to_verse, to_verse_end.

Books are named by their USFM codes (GEN, EXO, … REV; the Apocrypha’s as TOB, JDT, 1MA, and so on). Verse
numbers are the KJV’s; verse 0 is the whole chapter, and a blank verse_end is the one verse.
