Press Generate for a random Bible verse: a line of Scripture to start the day, settle the mind, or share with someone who needs it. Draw a single verse for a moment of reflection, or a small set when you want a few passages to sit with.
A random verse meets you where you are. Many people open the day with one as a devotional: a fresh passage instead of flipping to the same familiar page, letting the words set the tone before everything else crowds in. Others reach for one in a hard moment: a verse on comfort when grief is close, on strength before something daunting, on hope when the way ahead is unclear. Small-group leaders and Sunday-school teachers pull a verse to open a session. People send one to a friend going through a rough week, write it inside a card, or use it as the seed for journaling.
Keep the draw on theme with the category filter. Choose faith, love, hope, strength, comfort, wisdom, gratitude, or forgiveness, and the verse that comes up speaks to what you are carrying that day. Leave the filter open when you would rather be surprised by whatever Scripture lands.
Read every verse in the King James Version, or switch to the World English Bible for plainer, modern wording. Each one is quoted in full with its book, chapter, and verse, so you can read it in context or cite it exactly.
Share a link that carries your filter and count, and whoever opens it draws from the same set, handy for a group reading the same passages.
Frequently asked questions
Which Bible translation does it use?
The King James Version, or the World English Bible if you prefer modern English. Either way the verse is quoted in full with its book, chapter, and verse.
Can I get a verse about a specific theme, like strength or love?
Yes. The category filter narrows the draw to faith, love, hope, strength, comfort, wisdom, gratitude, or forgiveness, so the verse fits what you are looking for.
Can I draw several verses with no repeats?
Turn on No repeats and set the count. The verses come back with no duplicates, enough for a reading.
Is there a Catholic version?
Yes. The Catholic Bible verse generator uses the Douay-Rheims, so the wording differs from the King James and World English versions here.
Is it free to use?
Yes, and there is no cap, so it suits a daily habit as well as a one-off read.
