API Bible through One
API.Bible is a scripture API platform that provides structured access to Bible translations, books, chapters, verses, audio, and related metadata, allowing developers to build Bible apps, study tools, search experiences, and faith-based content integrations.
One exposes API Bible through four MCP tools. The table below carries real action ids from One's knowledge base, so for a common operation you can skip search and go straight to reading the action's parameters.
How to run an action
- Find the action in the table below, or call
search_one_platform_actions with platform api-bible if it is not listed.
- Call
get_one_action_knowledge with the action id. Do this every time, including for actions in this table. The table gives you the id, not the parameters.
- Call
execute_one_action with parameters copied from that knowledge.
Never guess a parameter name, a body field, or an enum value. The knowledge has the real schema, and a guessed field is either a 400 or a silent write of the wrong thing.
Before you start
Call list_one_integrations once and confirm API Bible is connected. If it is missing, the user has not connected it: say so and point them at https://app.withone.ai rather than reaching for raw HTTP.
Each connection carries an access field. If it reports {"policy": "methods", "methods": ["GET"]} the agent is read-only here, so plan a read-only answer instead of attempting a write that will be refused.
Before a write
Creates, updates, deletes and sends land on a real API Bible account and cannot be recalled. State the action and the specific target in one line before the first write in a task, and let the user stop you. Reads need no confirmation.

When a call fails
The error comes from API Bible, not from One. A 400 or 422 means your parameters do not match the schema, so re-read the knowledge and fix the field. A 401 or 403 means the connection needs re-authorizing, which no retry will fix. A 404 means the id is not on this account. A 429 means slow down. Never retry a write more than once: the first attempt may have landed.
