If it really needs to be owned by root, then I would create a group
"bible" and add all the users who will be using the program to it. Then
change the ownership of the file to root:bible. If the permissions
allow the group members to run the program (77x), it should work. You
may need to change the attributes of the folder as well.
I hope this helps.
