Multiple typos found in the ASV usx files

[ghost]

How can I share the typos I've found? Can I create a branch/pull request? Thanks!

[ryanavella]

@buchankn Can you share some examples of the typos you've identified?

I tried a semi-automated search with a typo-finding library, and while it did have some 3000+ false positives (proper names like "Maai," and archaic words like "winnoweth"), it did not identify any typos.

My apologies for not seeing this comment in January. I agree with @ryanavella that it probably makes sense if you can provide a few samples of the typos you're seeing so that we can compare them with the original at https://archive.org/details/holybible00newy.

Below is a diff of the issues I found. I did a line-break at the beginning of each verse to make the diffs easier to post here.

These are good catches! I think a pull request is probably the way to go.

Thanks! I created a pull request on these changes.
