I did this the first time you mentioned it! The only thing that I hadn't done was to uncheck the Escaping: fields. It works great. Thank you!

Ok. Here is what currently works: https://www.dropbox.com/s/grqu75iojwwugy7/MLV%202016.alfredworkflow?dl=0

Okay. For some reason my query is still not being passed into the script. After running it will paste whatever was on the clipboard before it ran.

This workflow accesses a Bible program (Accordance) and searches it for the 'selected verse reference' then pastes the result. It works fine. Instead of a hotkey, I want to be able to type a keyword such as 'find' then a verse reference and have the reference run through the script. Tried some of the more obvious approaches, but it just won't work for me. Current configuration is ----- >>>Selection in OSX- Hotkey >>>Run Script- global theResult global moduleName global input global citationFormat set moduleName to "MLV 2016" --NOTE: Change this to change what version you paste, i.e. ASV, but keep in mind it must be available in Accordance. set input to (the clipboard) set citationFormat to "true" getScriptureText(moduleName, input, citationFormat) on getScriptureText(moduleName, input, citationFormat) tell application "Accordance" to set theResult to «event AccdTxRf» {moduleName, input, citationFormat} tell application "System Events" set visible of process "Accordance" to false end tell end getScriptureText tell application "System Events" set the clipboard to theResult end tell >>>Copy to Clipboard - {clipboard} - Paste to frontmost

Exactly what I was looking for! This answer should be a little easier to find.
