#1 Extract & Join - Bible verses, chapters etc.

Posted by: PSPad | Date: 2022-06-17 13:31 | IP: IP Logged

I am looking for a script that will extract just the verses and join.

Main Source:
Isa 49:5-8 that formed.
Isa 51:5; 60:9; 66:19; Zep 2:11 the isles.
Jer 1:5 Before I.

The expected result should look like this:
Isa 49:5-8; Isa 51:5; 60:9; 66:19; Zep 2:11; Jer 1:5

Hi,
you can use a regular expression replacement and join the lines of this part after that:

Search for last digit, folowed by a space and any non-digit characters until the end of line; replace with that last digit and a semicolon:

(\d) \D*$
Replace with (regex)
$1;

After that, use
Edit: Lines manipulation: Join lines

(There is an extra semicolon at the end too in the result too.)

The expression is not fully compatible with extracting the verse. Any ideas to improve to extract the verses only?
([0-9]* {0,2}[A-Z]{1}\w+[,.;:]? {0,4}[xvilcXVILC\d]+[.,;:]( {0,2}[\d-,]{1,7})+)([,.;:] {0,4}[xvilcXVILC]*[.,;:]( {0,2}[\d-,]{1,7})+)*
