Scripture References

Use colons between chapter and verse numbers (most Europeans use a different format, putting commas here).
Use commas between verse numbers of the same chapter (and between chapter numbers, but only if no verses are given).
Use semicolons between references that give chapter and verse numbers from different chapters.
Use a single dash between verses to indicate "from-to" within one chapter (or between chapter numbers without verses).
Do not use periods after abbreviated book names, but do put spaces between the abbreviations and chapter numbers.

In Phil 4:6 we are called not to be anxious.
