Explanation:

the titles of specific editions of sacred texts, such as the The New American Standard Bible. However, you should not write the names of holy books, such as the Bible, in italics. This rule applies whether you are including the title within your paper or on your works cited page or bibliography.

Examples of what to use in italics

Foreign Words/Technical Terms/Unfamiliar Words: When we are writing a text in one particular language (i.e. English) and want to introduce a foreign word or phrase, we tend to italicize the foreign words. (The word for cat in Spanish is gato.)
