Fetching a Passage
https://rest.api.bible/v1/bibles/{bibleId}/passages/{passageId}

To fetch a passage in Bible, you must send a GET request to the above API endpoint using the appropriate Bible ID andPassage ID you would like to fetch. For more information, check out our Passages Guide. While a Passage ID can span both chapters and books, the API will only return the first 200 verses of the result. In this instance, the truncated result will be reflectd in the id field, which will show the verse range actually returned. This means that large passages may need to be broken up into smaller chunks to successfully fetch them in their entirety from the API.

Tip: This endpoint will also return verse content within the content field. Verse content can be configured based on the given input parameters, see our Verse Content Guide for more.

4 Verses

16For God loved the world, and this is how: he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who trusts in him shouldn't die, but have eternal life. 17God didn't send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Those who trust in him are not condemned, while those who don't trust in him are condemned already because they didn't trust in the one and only Son of God. 19This is how the decision is made: the light came to the world, but people loved the darkness rather than the light, for their actions were evil.
