The website for the Apostolic Bible Polyglot English Text adapted by Tyndale House (ABEn) is: https://www.apostolicbible.com

I believe it is based on the Apostolic Bible Polyglot Greek Text (abpgrk) adapted by Tyndale House (ABGk).

And according to https://www.stepbible.org/version.jsp?version=ABGk:
 
 > The Greek text is based on the Vaticanus MS as represented in the 1709 Lambert Bos ed. (ie the 1587 Sixtine ed of Vaticanus where lacunae and obvious errors were corrected by other MSS). This was compared with the two oldest printed editions: 1518 Aldine LXX (by Aldus Manutius) and the LXX of the 1517 Complutensian Polyglot (aka Alcal� Polyglot). When they disagreed, Charles Van der Pool used the majority reading, and when all three disagreed he used the reading nearest to the Hebrew (this was necessary only about a dozen times). The versification of the Complutensian Bible was used because this approximated most closely to the Hebrew.
Adaptations by Tyndale House: Conformed to Tyndale Full LSJ Bible Lexicon and Strongs Lexicon; added tagging for proper names.
