API.Bible
See how churches, ministries, and faith organizations use AI agents to deliver scripture, support Bible study, and engage communities.
Customer asks for a specific Bible passage like John 3:16 or Psalm 23. Your AI agent searches API.Bible, retrieves the exact verses in the customer's preferred translation, and delivers formatted scripture text instantly. The agent can include footnotes and cross-references when requested, providing scholarly context within the conversation.
Customer wants to understand how different Bible translations render a specific passage. Your AI agent retrieves the same section from multiple versions - NIV, KJV, ESV, and more - and presents them side-by-side. Customers can compare wording, explore nuances, and deepen their understanding without leaving the conversation.
Customer wants to find all Bible verses about forgiveness, prayer, or another topic. Your AI agent searches across the selected Bible version, retrieves matching verses with their references, and presents organized results. The agent can paginate through extensive results and help narrow searches to specific books or testaments.

FAQs
The agent can access nearly 2500 Bible versions across over 1600 languages through API.Bible. This includes popular English translations like NIV, KJV, ESV, and NASB, as well as versions in Spanish, French, Chinese, Arabic, and hundreds of other languages. The agent retrieves the full catalog using the Get Supported Versions action.
Yes. The agent uses the Search Verses action to find all verses containing your search terms within any Bible version. You specify the query text and version identifier, and the agent returns matching verses with their book, chapter, and verse references. Results are paginated for extensive searches.
When retrieving section content, the agent can specify HTML, JSON, or plain text output format. You can also control whether to include verse numbers, chapter numbers, section titles, and footnotes. This flexibility lets you format scripture appropriately for websites, apps, or plain conversational delivery.
Chapters are the standard numerical divisions of Bible books. Sections are thematic groupings that may span multiple chapters or subdivide a single chapter - like the Sermon on the Mount spanning Matthew 5-7 or the Beatitudes within Matthew 5. The agent can navigate by either structure depending on customer needs.
Yes. The agent can retrieve the same section from different Bible versions and present them together for comparison. Using the parallels parameter in the Get Section action, you can request content from multiple Bible IDs simultaneously, enabling side-by-side translation comparison in a single request.
API.Bible allows up to 500 consecutive verses per request and 5000 queries per day per API key. These limits ensure fair usage across all developers. The agent operates within these constraints, and for most conversational use cases involving scripture lookup and search, these limits are more than sufficient.
Yes, when retrieving section content the agent can include footnotes by setting the include-notes parameter. Footnotes provide translation notes, manuscript variants, and cross-references that enhance scriptural understanding. You can enable or disable footnotes based on whether customers want scholarly detail or clean reading text.
The agent uses the Get All Books action with the Bible version ID to retrieve the complete book catalog. This returns all books available in that translation - typically the 66 books from Genesis to Revelation - with their names, abbreviations, and identifiers for further navigation to chapters and sections.
