The {{Bible ref}} template sets up an external link to BibleGateway for providing a chapter and verse reference for any book of the Bible, in any version in any language. Use it without a verse parameter to quote entire chapters. For framed quotes, use Bible verses in the Bible quote template.
To use, specify the following parameters (only book and chapter are required; the others have defaults).
Example: {{Bible ref|book=Matthew|chap=1|verses=1-18|version=ASV}}
- book = the book of the Bible. Required.
- chap = the number of the chapter. Required.
- verses = one verse or a range of verses. Default is the entire chapter.
- version = the version you want the quote in.
Note: this template does not "substitute" well. It tends to leave the "if" statements in place.
