The "find next" command is read with n. In literary grade 2 braille, the correct way to write biblical references is the write the chapter number followed by a number sign then the verse number, example: John 3#16. To get the BN to read this in perfect grade 2 braille, replace all the colons with number signs.
I'm generally not a stickler, but I hate seeing biblical references written in incorrect braille, especially when a blind person does it. Sighted people don't know any better, but blind people who read braille do know better. I hope your Bible is divided into the 66 books. The BN doesn't like large files.
