Books of the Bible should be abbreviated when referenced in parentheses.

When citing from multiple translations within a paper, the version abbreviation should be included within the in-text parentheses.

If the student uses more than one version, however, the first instance of each Bible version will be spelled out fully, and then its abbreviation must be used as necessary for the reader to discern which version is being referenced.

If only one version is used in a paper, then the version will only be spelled out fully in that first citation. The version will not be mentioned again unless version is changed. Rather than footnoting the first instance (and including “unless otherwise noted”) as in previous versions of Turabian, the version of the Bible being used will be noted in parentheses, spelled out, after the first Bible citation. All Bible verses will be mentioned parenthetically only. As a sacred work, you do not include the Bible in your bibliography.
