This template sets up the external link to BibleGateway for providing a chapter or chapter and verse reference for any passage in the Bible, in any version in any language.
Examples:
- {{Bible ref|book=1Corinthians|chap=1|verses=1-18|version=ASV}}
- {{Bible ref|1Corinthians|1|1-18|version=ASV}}
NOTE A: Books which have spaces in the name (such as Song of Solomon or I & II Corinthians) must be solid set (spaces omitted), or with the spaces replaced with underscores (_). (i.e. ICorinthians and 1Corinthians and I_Corinthians and 1_Corinthians all work, but (I Corinthians) does not.)
NOTE B: If the version is not supplied, the link will be to the NIV, but the version will not be shown. To show that the link is to the NIV, supply NIV to the version parameter.
NOTE C: This template does not "substitute" well. It tends to leave the "if" statements in place.
NOTE D: If both un-named (numbered) parameters and equivalent named parameters are used, the named parameter will take precedence over the un-named parameter.
Alternative:
For framed quotes, use {{Bible quote}}.
