What is bible.gripe?

A quiet place to read the Bible: every chapter on its own fast page, with nothing in the way of the text. No ads, no pop-ups, no account and no app to install.

Which translations are here, and why these?

The World English Bible (modern English, the default), the King James Version (1769 text) and the American Standard Version (1901). All three are in the public domain, so they can be offered freely; most modern translations are copyrighted. The compare view also shows the Hebrew Old Testament (Westminster Leningrad Codex) and the Greek New Testament (Robinson-Pierpont Byzantine text) beside the English. In the United Kingdom, printing the King James Version is restricted by Crown letters patent; reading it online is not affected.

Which books?

The 66 books in the usual Protestant order. The deuterocanonical books (the Apocrypha) from the World English Bible are in a separate, labelled section and are never mixed in.

How does verse numbering work?

Each text keeps its own numbers. Where the Hebrew numbers verses differently from English Bibles (psalm titles, some chapter breaks), the compare view lines them up and shows both numbers rather than forcing them to match. More on numbering.

What do you keep about me?

Nothing on a server. Your place, bookmarks, highlights, notes and reading-plan progress stay in this browser, and you can export them as a file. Search runs on your device. Sources, licences and privacy.
