The message says
HAVE A HAPPY FATHER'S DAY / IN LOVING MEMORY
and it works as follows:
everything up to the last "-" uses the elements' symbols to indicate a book of the bible; after that the element numbers indicate a chapter and verse; sometimes there is also a word number. (When there isn't we take the first word.)
And of course
the note about "King James VI and I" (that's a Roman number 1, not a first-person-singular pronoun) indicates that we should use the so-called King James translation.
We get
I Samuel 21:15 Have ...
I Timothy 3:2 A ...
Proverbs 3:13 Happy ...
Genesis 50:1 #6 ... father's ...
Psalm 55:10 Day
--
I Kings 16:8 In ...
Isaiah 56:10 #20 ... loving ...
Proverbs 10:7 #2 ... memory
And
Rubio, if this implies what I guess it does then I am sorry for your loss. [I don't mean to imply that it must have been very recent.]
Credit where due: There were a couple of errors in the first version of this answer, which I have fixed after Rubio kindly pointed them out.
Discredit where due: I originally claimed that one element in the process was "sometimes slightly sketchy", but the sketchiness was in fact all in my head. Sorry, Rubio!
