How do you cite a quotation from the Bible? Please don’t forget that OWL Purdue is the preferred grammar source for KIS.

- In your first parenthetical citation, you want to make clear which Bible you're using (and underline or italicize the title), as each version varies in its translation, followed by book (do not italicize or underline), chapter and verse. For example: Ezekiel saw "what seemed to be four living creatures," each with faces of a man, a lion, an ox, and an eagle (//New Jerusalem Bible//, Ezek. 1.5-10). If future references employ the same edition of the Bible you’re using, list only the book, chapter, and verse in the parenthetical citation.
