Usage

This template is used to provide sources for Bible verse references.

This template creates an external link. The external links content guideline states that external links "should not normally be used in the body of an article". Furthermore, the use of inline parenthetical referencing is now deprecated on Wikipedia. Place external links to the Bible in footnotes, but be aware that the Bible may be considered a primary source, which should be used with care in sourcing Wikipedia articles.

Code format:

{{Bibleverse|Bible book name|c:v–c:v|version}}

Example

{{Bibleverse|Genesis|1:1|KJV}} yields: Genesis 1:1 KJV

• Shorthand can be used for the names, such as 1 Sam or Deut. See the Chicago Manual of Style for other acceptable abbreviations.
• Verse references may be simplified (for example, no range or entire chapter).

List of versions

The following table holds a partial list of available Bible versions and the external sites used by the template to link them. The default version is the New Revised Standard Version due to its frequent use among biblical scholarship. The English Standard Version is emerging in use among biblical scholars and theologians inclined toward theological conservatism. See the article on Modern English Bible translations for additional information.
