Show one verse or a short passage (up to 8 verses) side by side in up to six stored translations, each read verbatim with its own license, corpus hash and passage hash, plus the Hebrew or Greek line when wanted. Use when the person wants to see how Bibles differ ("how do different Bibles translate John 1:1", "John 3:16 in Spanish and English", "compare Psalm 23 in the KJV and the Douay-Rheims"). Not for reading one passage in one translation (scripture_passage with translation), the word by word Hebrew or Greek with definitions (original_words), or finding which ids exist (list_translations). translations takes ids from list_translations (default kjv, bsb, web, dra); language adds that language's default translation first; include_original (default true) appends the Westminster Leningrad Codex or Byzantine Greek line. Versification is mapped honestly (Psalm 23 is Psalm 22 in the Douay-Rheims) and a verse a translation does not have is reported in its row as missing, never filled from another text. A range longer than 8 verses is cut to 8; a whole chapter or unparseable reference returns an error; an unknown id gets a row with text null and the reason. Deterministic, no network.
