FONS

the source the lenses point to

Fons — Latin for a spring, a wellhead — is the shared scripture text behind the Wroot Press reading lenses. The Bible, public domain and chunked one chapter to a file, served as plain JSON so any project can turn a citation into the reading itself.

How to read it

Every chapter is one small JSON file, addressed by translation, book, and chapter:

GET /web/john/6.json
GET /web/1-kings/14.json
GET /web/psalms/110.json
GET /web/_manifest.json   ← books, chapter counts, name aliases

From a project

Drop in the one-file client and ask for a passage by its human reference:

import { passage } from "@/lib/fons";

const p = await passage("1 Kings 14:21–31");
p.text     // "Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah…"
p.verses   // [{ v: 21, t: "…" }, …]
