## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability macaroon-network-christian-scripture-lookup-84b58535 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up John 3:16 through 3:17 from the Berean Standard Bible and give me the exact text with the source label?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need exact, verifiable, public-domain Bible text with source attribution — particularly the Berean Standard Bible or World English Bible — rather than a paraphrase or unattributed quote. Ideal for applications requiring citation provenance, such as devotionals, sermons, academic writing, or scripture-grounded AI responses where the translation identity must be confirmed.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent book/chapter/verse reference returns an error
- Requesting a translation not in the supported set (BSB or WEB) returns an error
- Malformed request body missing required fields returns a validation error
- Verse range that exceeds the chapter boundary may return an error or truncated result

## How this service works

## Output

Returns the requested Bible passage text bounded to the requested verse range, tagged with the source translation (Berean Standard Bible or World English Bible), chapter and verse labels, and provenance metadata confirming the public-domain source.
