<noinclude>{{:Navleft|Templates Reference}}</noinclude>

This template allows you to create a chiasm structure. Each level of the chiasm is formatted on its own line. The first parameter is the label (e.g. A, B, C'). The second parameter is the indent level. The third parameter is the scripture text. 

Example:

 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|A|1|{{#scripture:Lev 24:17}}}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|B|2|{{#scripture:Lev 24:18}}}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|C|3|{{#scripture:Lev 24:19}}}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|D|4|{{:Erasesentencefromend|{{#scripture:Lev 24:20}}|1}}}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|C'|3|{{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Lev 24:20}}|1|...}}}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|B'|2|{{:Erasesentencefromend|{{#scripture:Lev 24:21}}|1|...}}}}</nowiki>
 <nowiki>{{:Chiasm|A'|1|{{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Lev 24:21}}|1|...}}}}</nowiki>

Which outputs:
{{:Chiasm|A|1|{{#scripture:Lev 24:17}}}}
{{:Chiasm|B|2|{{#scripture:Lev 24:18}}}}
{{:Chiasm|C|3|{{#scripture:Lev 24:19}}}}
{{:Chiasm|D|4|{{:Erasesentencefromend|{{#scripture:Lev 24:20}}|1}}}}
{{:Chiasm|C'|3|{{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Lev 24:20}}|1|...}}}}
{{:Chiasm|B'|2|{{:Erasesentencefromend|{{#scripture:Lev 24:21}}|1|...}}}}
{{:Chiasm|A'|1|{{:Erasesentence|{{#scripture:Lev 24:21}}|1|...}}}}
