Is it possible to suppress double hyphenation when using the object versenumbers
because the hyphen on the next line crosses the verse number!

You can use a different hyphen character, which will not be recognized by NWC.

For example, you could change to a non-breaking hyphen (U+2011):

Code: [Select · Download]

re-cline

would become:

re‑ cline

Alternately, you can use a regular hyphen, and insert a line break between the syllables:

re-
cline

How about, "Sweet Adeline / Will you be mine? / Let us recline...." (OK, "Sweet Adeline" doesn't go that way. But it coulda.) ;-)
