This is too good to be true. For a RSS feed addicted geek like me I can read the Bible every day before I check the news and other things.

http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/share/rss2.0/

They have several versions including "Verse of the Day", "Weekly Memory Plan" (for memorizing scripture), and Devotionals.
They're all free and the text loads in the rss akregator so you don't need to go clicking on any links.

Awesome! I don't yet know if ESV is good or not though, would personally prefer KJV.

1Jo 2:9-10 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. 10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
Joh 17:26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

It's pretty cool actually to read the verse of the day which you can quickly view in your translation of choise by choosing the translation from the drop down selection box.
Here's todays passage in KJV - ESV comparison: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews%204:16&version=47;9;

I have put the RSS feed link to firefox's link bar so I can check the verse of the day easily (and actually remember to check it).

wow ESV is pretty similar. seems like a good translation, never heard of it...

hmm, if I was getting on the PC every day I would use this.

instead I think I'll stick with the actual bible, lol.
