He said to them, “Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
He told them, 'Watch out. Guard yourselves against wanting more and more, because a person's life isn't made of how much stuff they own.'

Stories you half remember
- The Prodigal SonA son asks for his inheritance early, blows it, and comes home with a speech ready. His father doesn't let him finish. Then the older brother shows up.
- David vs. GoliathA shepherd boy with a sling and a giant with a spear like a fence post. The real story of David and Goliath, what David actually said, and what it isn't about.
- Joseph and his brothersSold by his brothers, framed by his boss's wife, forgotten in prison. Joseph's story runs from Genesis 37 to 50 and ends with the hardest kind of forgiveness.
- EstherAn orphan becomes queen of Persia, a genocide is signed into law, and God is never named once. Esther, and ‘who knows if you're here for such a time as this’.
- Jesus calms the stormA night crossing, a storm that fills the boat, and Jesus asleep on a cushion. Mark's shortest miracle story ends with a question the disciples can't answer.
- RuthA widow, her foreign daughter-in-law, and a barley field. Ruth is a short book about loyalty, grief and an ordinary kindness that led to King David.
A reason for every day's reading
- Anxiety Off 5 daysFive short days of Bible reading for an anxious brain. Not a cure, just the passages that actually help when your thoughts won't stop.
- Mark in 16 days 16 daysRead the shortest, fastest Gospel in sixteen days, one chapter a day, with a line each day about what to watch for in that chapter.
- Who You Are 5 daysFive days on what the Bible says you are before anyone else gets a vote: made on purpose, known completely, chosen, adopted, and being remade.
- Psalms in 30 days 30 daysAll 150 psalms in a month, five a day. Songs for every mood you've had, including the ones you don't say out loud, in the order the book puts them.

Questions people ask
Is this a new Bible translation?
No. Every verse on this site is the World English Bible, a modern public-domain translation. The Gen Z version next to it is a paraphrase: the same meaning in current words, written as a reading aid. It is never shown on its own, and it is not scripture.
Is Bible for Gen Z free?
Yes. The whole Bible offline in ten languages, the verse of the day, verses by mood, highlights, notes, the prayer journal and search are free, with no account and no ads. Premium adds unlimited Gen Z chapters and questions, every reading plan and story, and all the verse card styles.
Which church or denomination is behind this?
None. Bible for Gen Z is independent and non-denominational, made by Allegro Digital. Where Christians read a passage differently, the site says so rather than picking a side.
Are the verses on this site accurate?
Every verse is rendered from the World English Bible text at build time, never typed from memory, and a reference that does not exist fails the build. The paraphrases are checked against that text. If you find one that misses the meaning, the About page says how to report it.
Does the app work offline?
Yes. All ten Bible translations and every Gen Z paraphrase are built into the app, so reading, search, notes and the verse of the day work with no connection. Only the ask-anything feature needs internet.
Is the AI writing the Bible?
No. The Bible text is a real translation. The app's ask-anything feature answers questions and cites verses you can tap and check yourself, and every answer can be reported in one tap. Treat it like a knowledgeable friend, not like scripture.
