This is for citing the Hebrew Tanach as a source of quotations, and links to the appropriate page on Hebrew Wikisource. Parameters are:

first positional parameter, required
the number of the book:
second positional parameter, required
the chapter number
third positional parameter, optional
the verse number(s)
tsrc= parameter, optional
the source used for the translation included with the quotation; this currently only takes the values:

The first and second numbered parameters (numbers of the book and of the chapter), if less than 10, can have leading zeroes if desired, or not: they will display correctly. But the verse number(s) will display as typed.

Note also that if tsrc= is absent then the text displayed does not end with a colon (so notes about a source of a translation, or anything else, may be written in), whereas if tsrc= exists then the text ends with a colon.

Example: {{RQ:Tanach|1|2|3–4|tsrc=JPS}} displays as:
Tanach, Genesis 2:3–4, with translation of the Jewish Publication Society:
