What this page does

Press Next and a verse appears with its book, chapter and verse number. All verses come from the King James Version (KJV), a classic English translation that is in the public domain.

You can narrow the verses to the Old Testament or the New Testament, and pick a theme: hope, love, strength, peace, wisdom, faith or thanks.

How to use it

  1. Choose a testament. Pick the Old Testament, the New Testament, or both.
  2. Choose a theme if you like: hope, love, strength, peace, wisdom, faith or thanks.
  3. Press Next (or the Space bar) for a new random verse.
  4. Read the reference under the verse so you can find it in your own Bible.
  5. Copy the verse to share it or save it.

Ways to use a random Bible verse

Daily reading

Start or end the day with one verse. Read it slowly, then open your Bible to the reference and read the verses around it.

Memorizing scripture

Pick one verse a week to learn by heart. Write it on a card, read it each morning, and test yourself at the end of the week.

Small groups and Sunday school

Use a random verse to open a Bible study or a children's class. Ask the group what it means, where it fits in the chapter, and how it applies today.

Cards and notes

The love, peace and strength themes are a good place to look for a verse for a wedding card, a sympathy note or a message to a friend going through a hard time.

Journaling and prayer

Copy a verse into your journal and write a few lines about what it says to you today. The thanks theme is a natural fit for a gratitude journal.

Family devotions

Press Next at the breakfast or dinner table and let a different family member read the verse each day. Younger children can look up the reference and find the verse in a family Bible.

Tips

  • Read it in context. A single verse is part of a longer passage. Look up the chapter to understand what comes before and after.
  • Expect older English. The King James Version uses words like "thee", "thou" and "hath". Reading a verse aloud often makes it clearer.
  • Use themes for occasions. Hope and strength suit hard days, thanks suits celebrations, and love suits weddings and anniversaries.
  • Share the reference along with the words, so others can look the verse up.
  • Write it out by hand. Copying a verse slowly is one of the easiest ways to remember it.
  • Want more encouragement? Browse classic motivational quotes.

Questions

Which Bible translation do you use?

All verses come from the King James Version (KJV), a classic English translation that is in the public domain.

Can I get a random verse about hope or strength?

Are the verses really picked at random?
