How the random KJV verse generator works
Random Bible is a free random Bible verse generator. Press Another verse and it draws a fresh passage from Scripture chosen for encouragement (peace, hope, strength, comfort, and more), so every verse is one worth sitting with. Read it in the King James Version (KJV), or switch to the World English Bible (WEB) or American Standard Version (ASV) for modern wording. Found one that speaks to you? Copy it in a tap, or share it as an image. There's no sign-up and nothing to install. And if you’d like a verse without even visiting, the free Chrome extension brings one to every new browser tab.
Curated, not truly random
There are 31,102 verses in the Bible, and a generator that draws from all of them will hand you a genealogy or the measurements of a temple wall more often than anything you can pray with. That's a good way to read the Bible at random. It's a poor way to find a verse when you want one now.
So this draws from a hand-picked pool instead — verses gathered under topics like peace, hope, strength, comfort, anxiety, grief and healing. Each one was picked because it still makes sense pulled out of its chapter, which a lot of verses don't.
Narrow the draw: Psalms, the Gospels, either testament
“Give me a verse” and “give me a Psalm” aren't the same request. The Draw fromselector handles the second one. Leave it on the whole Bible, or set it to Psalms and every tap returns a Psalm, which is what most people mean by a random Psalm generator. Gospels narrows the draw to Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. New Testament and Old Testament split the canon in half.
There's no per-book setting, and that's deliberate. Most single books don't hold enough encouraging verses to keep from repeating after three or four taps. Psalms, the Gospels and each testament are all big enough that they don't.
Three public-domain translations
The default is the King James Version, the wording most English verses are remembered in. Its English is 400 years old, though, so two modern alternatives sit in the same selector: the World English Bible (WEB) and theAmerican Standard Version (ASV). All three are in the public domain, which is why they can be shown here in full, copied freely, and printed without permission.
What people do with a verse once they have one
Copy it into a journal or a message to a friend. Share it as an image: one tap renders the verse onto a card sized for Instagram or a text message. Keep it in front of you as a lock screen or a desktop background.
Or follow it back into its chapter. Most verses link through to the passage around them, which is usually where the verse starts to make proper sense. And if you run a church site, the widget puts a fresh verse on it for free.
Frequently asked questions
Is the random Bible verse generator free?
Yes. Random Bible is completely free, with no sign-up. Tap “Another verse” as many times as you like.
Which Bible translation does it use?
The King James Version (KJV) by default. You can switch to the World English Bible (WEB) or American Standard Version (ASV), all public-domain.
Can I get a random Psalm instead of any verse?
Yes. Set “Draw from” to Psalms and every tap returns a Psalm. The same selector also narrows the draw to the Gospels, the New Testament or the Old Testament, so it doubles as a random Psalm generator or a random New Testament verse generator without leaving the page.
How are the verses chosen?
Each verse comes from a hand-picked pool of encouraging, meaningful passages. They’re verses worth reflecting on, not genealogies or obscure lists.
Is this a random scripture generator too?
Yes. Each tap draws a random scripture from the King James Version, so Random Bible doubles as a random verse generator, whether you’re studying, journaling, or just pausing for a quiet moment.
Is it truly random across all 31,102 verses?
No, deliberately. A draw from the whole Bible mostly returns genealogies and building measurements. This picks at random from verses chosen by hand instead, so whatever comes up is something you can actually read.
Will the same verse come up twice?
Never twice in a row — the generator skips whichever verse you are already on. Beyond that it does not track history, so a verse you saw earlier can come back around.
Can I use it as a Bible verse of the day?
Plenty of people do: open it once in the morning and take the first verse as the day’s. Or let it come to you — the Chrome extension puts a fresh verse on every new browser tab.
Do you have a Bible verse randomizer or Bible dice?
Same idea, different name. A randomizer, a verse picker, Bible dice, a scripture wheel — they all mean “give me a passage I did not choose”, which is what the button above does.
Can I put a random verse on my own website?
Yes. The widget is free, needs no account, and drops into a church or ministry site with one snippet of HTML.
Can I get a Bible verse on every new browser tab?
Yes. Add the free Random Bible Chrome extension and a fresh verse appears each time you open a new tab.
