Really great shortcut! Maybe in the next version you could include an edition/translation picker? (Eg NKJ, Message, NLT, etc) It currently only supports ESV.

Good idea, I've added a Text section where the Bible version of choice can be typed into the shortcut code. Didn't use a prompt so as to keep the search process as minimal as possible!
