This page groups scripture portions by the language they are actually read in. Wikipedia notes that "this equation of the written word with religious texts is particular to the English language, and is not retained in most other languages, which usually add an adjective like 'sacred' to denote religious texts." Browsing by language lets a visitor find every portion read in the same tongue.
