Model Context Protocol

Bible MCP Server

A remote MCP server that gives AI assistants like Claude direct access to Scripture. MCP is a standard that lets AI models call external tools during a conversation — so instead of relying on training data, the AI fetches live, accurate Bible text on demand.

Available Tools

get_passage
Fetch a specific verse or passage by natural language reference — "John 3:16", "Romans 8:1-4", "Psalm 23".
get_chapter
Retrieve an entire chapter — "Genesis 1", "John 3", "Revelation 22".
search_bible
Full-text keyword search across the Bible — "love your enemies", "faith without works".
list_books
List all books of the Bible with chapter counts for any supported translation.
