FaithBase may display Scripture quotations when an organization enables Scripture Search. Quotations are identified by their translation abbreviation, such as ESV or NIV.
Scripture Search is provided to help agents answer visitor questions with limited, contextual quotations. It is not designed or offered as a Bible reader, Bible publishing system, bulk download tool, export utility, or substitute for an authorized Bible text service.
Use and Access Controls
FaithBase applies product and technical controls to keep Scripture quotations limited and contextual. Agent access is mediated through bounded tool calls, conversation limits, rate limits, output limits, and organization-level feature controls. Scripture Search is off by default and must be enabled by an organization administrator.
These controls are intended to keep Scripture quotations incidental to ordinary question-answering. FaithBase does not provide a bulk Scripture API, download, export, or full-Bible reading interface. Attempts to use FaithBase to extract, compile, republish, or redistribute Bible text outside publisher guidelines are not permitted.
Publisher notices below are included to identify the translations and link to the publishers' guidelines. FaithBase's use of these translations is intended to follow the publishers' published limited-quotation guidelines; these notices do not represent a custom, negotiated license unless FaithBase separately states one in writing.
