BibleBot
by ArdilaVene
BibleBot is a server-side Fabric chat mod that periodically broadcasts Catholic Bible verses to every online player.
What it does
Once the server runs BibleBot, a random verse from its library appears in chat at an interval set in the server config. The verse is formatted with colored text, and divine names such as God, Lord, Christ, Jesus and Word are highlighted in yellow and rendered gold. Verses ship in Spanish, using the Biblia de Jerusalén, and in English, using the Douay-Rheims translation, with about 200 Catholic verses per language.
Operators control the broadcasts with commands for pausing, resuming and reloading the verse set, and a restart is needed for some changes to take effect. Additional languages can be added by dropping new language folders into the JAR. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing anything. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 26.1.2, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Timed verse broadcasts
Verses appear in global chat at a configurable interval, with a few minutes between them by default.
Highlighted divine names
Names such as God, Lord, Christ, Jesus and Word are shown in yellow and gold so they stand out in the verse text.
Two bundled translations
The Jerusalem Bible in Spanish and the Douay-Rheims in English are included, each with about 200 verses.
Operator commands
Commands let operators pause the broadcasts, resume them, and reload the verse set during play.
Extensible language folders
New languages can be added by placing their folders in the mod JAR, so the verse set is not limited to the bundled ones.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners and operators who want scheduled scripture in chat. Players need nothing installed, since the mod runs only on the server.
How it compares
HolyHUD is a Fabric mod for 1.20 – 1.20.6 that runs on the client only and is not open source, so it does not affect the server chat. IntervalCommands is open source under the MIT License and runs on the client only, covering 1.21 – 26.2, so it schedules commands rather than verses. PvpSys is server-side only under the Apache License 2.0 for 1.21 – 26.2, and it is not open source.
