Hi, Not sure what the problem is but over at Arimathea it's showing a red error, Could someone who understands this template fix this please?
I've come across this via WP:WPCleaner which lists the page as containing errors, Thanks, – Davey2010 Talk 14:25, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
I had reason to try to call this template recently during unrelated cleanup:
Special:MobileDiff/1188429077. Turns out the version cited in the article (New International Version) is hosted at a place that must have changed their html GET structure and site contents since the template was written, because {{bibleverse|Matthew|28|niv}}
, at time of writing, produces
Matthew 28, which after a bit of a loading time takes me to a site called Biblica.com (expected per documentation) titled "Genesis 1 – New International Version" (not great) reading "This chapter is not available yet in this translation." (uh oh).
I don't have any particular interest in this topic area, so I haven't tested other translations or hosting services, but some work looks like it needs doing here. Folly Mox ( talk) 10:50, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
Would it be possible to add some of these translations as well?
Would be handy for the Series on Jehovah's Witnesses, where none of the scriptures can be linked through {{ bibleverse}} as to compare these scriptures. We made a template with all these versions linking to each version for our own wiki, which could be used here as well, but this version works with a module and ours doesn't.
Hope to hear from you soon! Kind regards, Rodejong 💬 ✉️ 13:37, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
The template outputs Book chapter and verse but does not show the bible version. GraemeLeggett ( talk) 09:31, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Noting this is at Wikisource:la:Vulgata Clementina but not yet supported here; does LA WS need to do anything to make this possible? Jim Killock (talk) 19:56, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
