Hi Chileshe. There are different versions of the Bible indeed. Christians don’t all agree on a particular version. Which version do you use?
Readers can find 20 different versions on https://www.bible.com/bible
I was taught these books in order in Bemba when I was 9 years old and I use to recite them in my congregation during meetings….I am 34 years old now I still have these in memory….and I can still recite them….thanks for sharing!
