What are the default versification details of the apocrypha taken from? #22

What are the default versification details taken from? Apparently there is a version of the ESV with the apocrypha, but I haven't been able to find it online. Is it just the same as the NRSV? But that doesn't have EpJer...

You're right that the verse counts are from the NRSV, which does actually include EpJer as a separate book but, confusingly, continues the numbering from Baruch. See the footnote here for an explanation: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Letter+of+Jeremiah+1:1&version=NRSV
