BibleGateway

An unofficial 'API' for BibleGateway.com.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'bible_gateway'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install bible_gateway

require 'bible_gateway'

BibleGateway.versions # available versions

b = BibleGateway.new # defaults to :king_james_version, but can be initialized to different version

b.version = :english_standard_version
b.lookup('John 1:1') # => "<h4>John 1</h4>\n<h5>The Word Became Flesh</h5> <sup>1</sup> In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

Note that the method BibleGateway.new.old_lookup is only available after version 0.1.0. By default, this gem will scrape the new biblegateway.com

require 'bible_gateway'

b = BibleGateway.new # defaults to :king_james_version, but can be initialized to different version

b.old_lookup('John 1:1') # scraping the old site
