Psalm Daily Quotes ESV

 

Start your day with a quote from the Psalms or browse through the hundreds of quotes in the collection. You will find each quote to be thought provoking and uplifting.


THE ESV. THE BIBLE FOR LIFE.

What makes the ESV Bible unique and special?


First and foremost, the ESV is special because the Bible itself is like no other book. The words of the Bible are the very Words of God. As Jesus said, "The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life" (John 6:63)


Second, the ESV is special because it is a "word-for-word" translation. The Bible says every word was "breathed out by God" (2 Timothy 3:16). For this reason, the ESV seeks to translate the original Greek and Hebrew words with the greatest possible accuracy and precision.


Third, the ESV is special because it carries forward the great historic stream of Bible versions in English—with literary excellence, beauty, and depth of meaning, in a fresh and compelling way.


The ESV is unique and special. It's the Bible to read and treasure through all your life—a great choice for young and old, for daily reading and personal study, for church and family, for teaching and preaching, and for memorizing the words of life.


Each quote is set against a beautiful nature image background.


What's the difference?

This application is more than just a verse and pretty picture. Each picture has been carefully chosen to match the verse below through some keyword or concept whenever possible. You will enjoy seeing how images of cuddly creatures, mountains, stars, sunsets, sheep, penguins and more make the inspirational verse more interesting and meaningful.

Elegance and ease of operation characterize this application. The inspirational verse of the day is delivered quickly and additional verses are available with the tap of a finger.
