 * How do I get hyperlinks to show the Bible verse I’m linking to as a the reader
   hovers over the linked text?

 * you can use title in anchor link
 * `<a href="www.mysite.com/xyz.html" title="Bible verse is here">click for the 
   verse</a>`

 * This capability existed in the link editor modal window pre-4.2. Now, on mine,
   at least, it shows “link text” instead of “link title”. Was this change deliberate
   or a bug?

 * What I’m looking for is the option for the reader to hover their mouse over the
   hyperlink to have the verse pop up for them so they aren’t required to be directed
   to another website. This way everything is contained within the post.
 * I know how to insert hyperlinks, but maybe I’m misunderstanding the suggestions.

 * [@kingdom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kingdom/) – the suggestion by 
   [@laliz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/laliz/) was correct for the behavior
   you request. It used to be available in the link editor within WP, but seems 
   to be gone now. If you switch to Text view in the editor, you can add that text
   into the link itself.
