Public-domain scripture lab
About Spirit Nation
Spirit Nation is a reverent scripture library and API foundation built around public-domain Bible translations, Apocrypha, and structured verse-level access.
What This Lab Is
Spirit Nation is being built as a clean reading experience first and a durable scripture data platform second. The library separates translations, books, chapters, and verses so every passage can be searched, read, linked, and eventually served through a managed API.
The alpha focus is simple: make the biblical canon and Apocrypha accessible through reliable public-domain sources, avoid copyrighted modern translations unless a license is explicitly reviewed, and keep the data model strong enough to support future paid API access.
Source Policy
Spirit Nation only imports scripture texts that are public domain, public-domain-dedicated, or otherwise cleared for this type of use. This keeps the project flexible enough for public reading, API access, indexing, and future commercial tiers.
Modern translations that require permission, attribution agreements, or paid licensing are not imported into the core database until their terms are reviewed and approved. Source corrections, missing verses, versification differences, and Apocrypha coverage are expected to improve during alpha.
API Direction
The API is designed for developers who need clean scripture data without fighting unreliable endpoints. Approved API keys can access translations, books, chapters, verses, searches, and verse ranges. Usage quotas and admin review are already part of the alpha foundation.
The long-term goal is to support fair free access for light use while allowing higher-volume projects, apps, and commercial integrations to request larger quotas or paid plans.
Alpha Status
This is still an alpha lab. The reader, account access, API request queue, and scripture imports are active, but the project is still being tested for data consistency, UI clarity, API ergonomics, and missing public-domain sources.
Feedback, source suggestions, bug reports, and API use cases can be sent through the contact form.
