Purpose

This template inserts an external link to a Bible reference at biblegateway.com, allowing for choice of translation.

Available translations

Translations available through Biblegateway.com may be found at http://www.biblegateway.com/usage/linking/versionslist.php

Usage

Examples:

{{bibleref2|John|3:16}}

or

{{bibleref2|John|3:16|NKJV}}

or

{{bibleref2|Jn|3:16|NKJV|John 3:16, NKJV}}
  • Book is the Bible book name in any abbreviation allowed by biblegateway.com. It must not contain any blanks! Therefore, 1Cor instead of 1 Cor
  • Reference is the chapter, chapter-and-verse, or chapter-and-verse range within the book; if omitted, it defaults to Chapter 1.
  • OPTIONAL: Translation_Abbreviation is the translation name abbreviation, such as NIV, KJV, NKJV, NASB, TLB, etc. If omitted, it defaults to TNIV. NOTE: RSV is not available. For complete list of available translations, see http://www.biblegateway.com/usage/linking/versionslist.php. Editor must use standard alphabetic abbreviations, not numerical ones.
  • OPTIONAL: Display_reference is the display choice of the editor. If omitted, then the Book and Reference will be displayed. Some uses for Display_reference include the ability to:
    • spell out a numbered book like "1 Timothy" instead of the default display of "1Timothy"
    • add the version such as "(NASB");
    • indicate any other note to be displayed as part of the link.

Differences from Template bibleref

Similar to Template bibleref with three main differences:

  1. This template always defaults to ESV if translation_abbr is left blank.
  2. It always produces a link to biblegateway.com
  3. It allows a display reference as the fourth parameter
