One passage, drawn from 200 that have been reviewed as reading clearly on their own. It is not a message chosen for you, and it is not an instruction — it is simply a passage to read.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. All those who do his work have a good understanding. His praise endures forever!
Scripture quotations are from the World English Bible British Edition, which is in the public domain. “World English Bible” is a trademark of eBible.org.
A verse chosen from all 31,098 verses of the Bible would frequently be a fragment of a genealogy, half a legal clause, or a sentence that means something quite different once separated from the paragraph it belongs to. Sites that do this produce results that range from confusing to genuinely misleading.
So this page does not do that. It draws from a hand-reviewed pool of passages judged to hold together on their own. The full text remains available through book browsing and search.
