I'm a trifocal wearing 80 year old who is beginning to find large print
Bibles easier to read. However they can be inconvenient &/or cumbersome.
My 17" monitor is a more pleasant reading experience.

For my current needs I'm looking for a KJV Bible with verses grouped as
logical paragraphs by <p>...</p> tags and verse numbers as superscripts.

I've found a plethora of "Bible study *applications*" presented as HTML.
I'm looking for a comfortable reading experience.

Suggestions?
TIA

17" is tiny nowadays, how about a (much) larger monitor and then scale
the fonts up as required. Obviously I don't have a clue what your
current monitor's geometry is, but a lot of the larger ones still have
the same number of pixels.

Any applicable comment?

At Project Gutenberg <https://www.gutenberg.org/>, I see at
<https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/search/?query=King+James+version+bible&submit_search=Go!>
two complete copies of "The King James Version of the Bible" along with
individual books from that bible.

Demonstrators worldwide are demanding that Israel stop
fighting in Gaza. Why does it seem that no one is demanding
that Hamas stop fighting? And where are the demonstrations
against Russia fighting in the Ukraine.

I hunted around and found this:

https://www.holybooks.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/The-Holy-Bible-King-James-Version.pdf

It is organised into paragraphs although the chapter verse are not
superscripts but embedded with brackets.
