You got a similar request in your other thread https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...ariable-3.html where nobody answered anymore. Please keep to that thread and do not open a new thread for the same problem, thanks.
Also the solutions provided might give you a clue how it could work with sed. Try it out yourself - you can't damage or harm anything.

Also use code tags instead of coloring everything in different colors. There are people that are color blind so code tags are usually sufficient and more appropriate.

Lucky you, there is an answer already.
