Your best bet is OSNOVA: http://store.osnova.com/Kindle-Bibles_c_1.html
There's no LXX, but there's the new SBL edition, that's FREE, and there's a Byzantine text edtion for $4.99, there are also editions described as being "for beginners" -- I don't know what they're like. I have the SBL GNT and it's very good, but navigation seems somewhat awkward -- at least on the older Kindle 2 (I haven't tried it on my Kindle Touch).

I think this query was posted in the wrong subforum.

You might want to give John Barach's Koine Bible a try. It is reasonably priced and easy to navigate. It does not include a lexicon but Amazon does have one available to use with the Kindle.
Sincerely,

Hi all.

I have created an epub and mobi (Kindle) version of the SBL Greek New Testament. It includes the Apparatus as footnotes.
When I get time I'll work on adding the Lexicon.

EPUB - http://theflecks.es/sblgnt/SBL.epub
MOBI - http://theflecks.es/sblgnt/SBL.mobi

More than happy to hear feed back and will make changes accordingly.

Peter

Nice use of fonts, very readable, simple display.

I downloaded the .mobi on my Nexus 7, clicked on it, an app launched offering to send it to my Amazon Kindle account. I said yes, and it said it had sent it. I couldn't find it under Books, then I found a category for Docs, which is where it landed. Reads well using the Kindle App.

I downloaded this for my Kindle Paperwhite; it looks better and is much easier to navigate than the Osnanova edition. It's not keyed to the LSJ for Kindle, however.

I would also consider putting the Dodson glossary in the back, it's available in the public domain from Ulrik's site.

I've been using Joshua Dickey's "Interlinear Greek Old Testament Interlinear" on Kindle. Have gone thru Genesis 37-45.and Exodus 1-15 with a finetooth comb for words I don't know, then memorize, and read the Greek text without aids in Brenton or Conybeare/Stock. I have to say that the Dickey kindle document has pretty horrible omissions of words and whole phrases. Every chapter i've worked through has several places where words are missing. When the greek makes no sense, I.look it up in Van Der Pool's interlinear or Brenton. The only reason I keep using Dickey is that the links to definitions are a timesaver 75% of the time. The other 25% of the time, words are missing from the text, or the link goes to the wrong word, or the link is missing. I don't see how people give this kindle app good ratings. They must not be combing through it minutely.like I am.

Hi. I'd like to have a mobi version of OT interlinear, but couldn't find this one you mentioned. Would you provide us a link for downloading it?

The files do seem to be there. When I loaded the mobi into Kindle, it had some errors, it did load for me. The pub works fine for me under iBooks.

The OSNOVA SBLGNT seems to be available from here:

http://osnova.com/blog/2011/06/12/sblgnt/

I loaded that into Kindle on my Mac without difficulty.
