Tried to use it and got: AttributeError: This app has encountered an error. The original error message is redacted to prevent data leaks. Full error details have been recorded in the logs (if you're on Streamlit Cloud, click on 'Manage app' in the lower right of your app).

This seems to struggle with phrases.

For example I expected Luke 9:13 as a result for the phrase "you feed them" or "you give them something to eat." The King James reads "give ye them to eat" but the app never found it.

SBERT isn't trained on this type of archaic English and you can see it failing. It needs to be fine tuned or you should use a modern Bible translation. A clear example is the query: "homosexuality" This returns: > James 2:3 - And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool It's clearly seei…

Would have loved this back in my religious days, or in the brief period of time I was interested in criticizing religion. These days I'm not really interested at all in the Bible, but this is still a pretty cool idea. A little bit of an archaic choice to search the KJV though. Maybe it was chosen due to copyright issues.

Must be for Mormons. They only read the King James Version because otherwise the Book of Mormon would sound super weird seeing as how it’s the worlds most popular Bible fanfic. Source: technically a Mormon.

Matthew 22:8 - Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

Luke 14:24 - For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.

heh heh.
