2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Translation: World English Bible British Edition.

16Therefore we don’t faint, but though our outward person is decaying, yet our inward person is renewed day by day. 17For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory, 18while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

How today’s verse is chosen

The daily verse is a rotation, not a random draw. A fixed, reproducible shuffle of the reviewed pool is computed once, and each date takes the next entry. That means no passage repeats until every one has appeared — a full cycle of 200days — and that two people opening the site on the same day always see the same passage.

A second pass through the rotation separates neighbouring passages from the same book, so the daily verse does not come from the Psalms three days running.

Dates are resolved in Europe/Londonby default. No external service is involved, and the calculation does not depend on a database or an AI model — if either were unavailable, today’s verse would still be correct.
