Duly moved to the right board. :)

I wonder if this http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3307 could be modified, to do what you want...?

The verses are stored in Paganverse.english.php (a file included in the download package) and can be edited to suit. The titles seem to be set up in install.xml which also can be edited :)

As for installing it, it looks like it might install straight away given that the installer has the following:

<install for="2.0 RC4, 2.0 RC5, 2.0-2.0.99">

Good luck

I would advise caution.

I have just looked at this for similar reasons as the OP.

Despite checking the mod failed to appear so I would make a post in the mods topic first.
