A random scripture verse from one part of the Bible
Choose one part in the list under the button to draw only from it: Psalms (69), Proverbs (32), the four Gospels (73), the letters from Romans to Jude (98), or Short verses (63) of 12 words or fewer, good for learning by heart. No verse comes back until that part has run through.
How the verses are printed
Each verse is exactly as the World English Bible has it, which writes God's name as Yahweh where many Bibles print LORD. Eleven cards give two verses that end one sentence, such as Proverbs 3:5-6. A psalm's title line is left off.
Questions and answers
Is this a random scripture generator for the whole Bible?
It draws from 381 verses chosen from 54 of the 66 books, not from all 31,103. Each card begins and ends with a whole sentence, so none starts or stops halfway through one.
Why do some verses open or close with one quotation mark?
A speech can run across several verses, so a verse from the middle keeps only the opening or closing mark the translation gives it. Matthew 11:28 opens with a quotation mark, and verse 30 closes it.
Which Bible does this random verse generator use?
The World English Bible, a public domain translation. Every verse was compared by script with eBible.org's download on 23 September 2026. The King James Version is not used. This site is not affiliated with eBible.org, which owns the name World English Bible.

How this list was compiled: Verse text: the World English Bible (WEB), Classic edition, which prints God's name as Yahweh, from eBible.org's verse-per-line download https://ebible.org/Scriptures/eng-web_vpl.zip (2020 stable text edition), fetched on 2026-09-23. The WEB is in the public domain (https://ebible.org/eng-web/copyright.htm). Every verse was copied from that file by script and compared with it again, character for character, before this list was saved: all match. Nothing is reworded, trimmed or repunctuated. A verse that opens or closes a speech keeps the single quotation mark it has in the WEB. Eleven cards print two verses that finish one sentence, such as Proverbs 3:5-6. A psalm's title line (for example "A Psalm by David.") is not part of the verse and is left off; it is checked against each psalm's chapter page on ebible.org. Verses with a long dash were passed over, because this site prints none and the text may not be changed. Which verses are here is our own selection of verses often quoted and memorized, from 54 of the 66 books: it follows no published ranking. The parts to choose from follow the book: Old and New Testament, Psalms, Proverbs, the four Gospels, and the letters (Romans to Jude). Short verses have 12 words or fewer in the WEB, counted by script. The King James Version is not used.
