## Analysis

The dataset requires more preprocessing to remove special characters and Scripture chapters/verse names & figures. This will make the model more generally useful outside of religious text translations.

Example 1
```sh
	Source:     But freedom from what ?
	Reference:  Ẹkẹvuọvo , ẹdia vọ yen egbomọphẹ na che si ayen nu ?
	Hypothesis: ( 1 Pita 3 : 1 ) Ẹkẹvuọvo , die yen egbomọphẹ 
```

Example 2
```sh
	Source:     Today he is serving at Bethel .
	Reference:  Nonẹna , ọ ga vwẹ Bẹtẹl .
	Hypothesis: Nonẹna , ọ ga vwẹ Bẹtẹl asaọkiephana .
