I'm seeing that there was a bug which prevented quotes within words of Jesus markers from being colors in earlier versions (at least v7) of PT. However, I can't seem to make it work in v9.5. I've tried the wj markers inside the qt markers and outside, neither works. It seems I can get either a quote (italics) or words of Jesus (red) but not both. Can anyone help with this?

When you have a character style "nested" inside of another character style, you must use a + after the backslash. So that you might have something like the following:

\q1 \v 3 \qt \+wj «Afortunados los que reconocen su necesidad espiritual,\+wj*\qt*
