get_passages() looks up sections of the corpus by human-readable reference strings and returns their rendered text. It is the direct way to read corpus text when you already know which verses, chapters, or books you want — for example after collecting references from search() results or after reading a cursor_id page. You can retrieve up to 100 references per call. Pass a fmt name from get_text_formats() to control the rendering (original script, transliteration, etc.).
Parameters
List of section reference strings to retrieve. The format is
"Book Chapter:Verse" for verse-level access, "Book Chapter" for chapter-level, or "Book" for book-level — matching the section hierarchy of the corpus. Examples: ["Genesis 1:1", "John 3:16", "Psalms 23:1"]. Maximum 100 references per call; any beyond the hundredth are silently ignored.Text rendering format (e.g.
"text-orig-full", "text-trans-plain"). When omitted, the corpus default format is used. Retrieve valid names with get_text_formats().Corpus name. When omitted, the currently active corpus is used.
Returns
A string with one block per reference, separated by blank lines. Each block begins with the reference in square brackets on its own line, followed by the rendered text of that section:[ref] — could not parse reference. When a parsed reference causes an error during section lookup (e.g. the section type is not addressable), the block reads [ref] — section not found. When the reference is valid but resolves to no node, the block reads [ref] — not found in corpus. Returns "No passages found." if the references list is empty or all references fail.
