The above snippet uses the kja gem to download and play an ogg file for verse title Genesis 1:9 from the King James Bible.
Note: I had originally intended for the OGG files to be included with the gem. However, the OGG directory file size was over 1.2GB and it was causing input/output error when trying to build the gem.
