Verse of the day ·

The LORD, you are my God. I will exalt you! I will praise your name, for you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago, in complete faithfulness and truth.

Isaiah 25:1

World English Bible

The verse is chosen in your browser from the date on your device. Nothing is sent or stored.

How it works

The list holds 366 verses, one for every calendar day including February 29. Your browser reads the date on your device, counts the day of the year as if it were a leap year, and shows the verse in that place of the list. Everyone with the same date sees the same verse, and a date gets the same verse every year.

The verses are single verses on hope, strength, temptation, purity, peace, prayer and God’s faithfulness, mixed so that two days in a row rarely share a theme. Each one is copied word for word from the translation, with nothing shortened or reworded.

The text is the World English Bible, a modern English translation in the public domain, so you can copy and share it freely. It is the same text the Renounce app reads offline.

Good to know

The date comes from the visitor’s device, so a reader in Tokyo and a reader in New York each get the next verse at their own midnight.
One verse is a short reading. To see what it says, read the verses around it.
