To use BibleBot, simply say a verse reference anywhere in a message, like Genesis 1:1, John 1:1-5, or even John 1:1-3, 5-7, 9. BibleBot supports the typical Protestant canon as well as the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox deuterocanonicals, if that version supports it (see /versioninfo below to find that information).
