Scripture Clock

About: Scripture Clock

Turn your old phone or tablet into an elegant wall clock that tells the time with scriptures!

The clock shows not just the current time, but also a scripture passage whose chapter and verse match the current hour and minute of the day. Since there are usually several scriptures that match the current time, the clock chooses a random scripture each minute.

For example, at 3:16pm, the clock might show John 3.16 (or Genesis 3:16 or Ezekiel 3:16 or any of the dozens of verses located at a chapter 3, verse 16 in the scriptures). If you tap the screen, the app will display a different scripture matching the current time, if there is one.




Scriptures are selected at random from the Old Testament, New Testament, the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ, the Doctrine & Covenants, or the Pearl of Great Price. Bible verses are taken from the King James version.

For the top of the hour (i.e. when the minute is :00) the clock shows a chapter heading. For example, at 6:00, the clock will show the heading for a randomly-selected chapter 6 from the scriptures.

There are a few times during the day that have no corresponding chapter and verse (for example, 11:59). For those cases, the clock shows the current time plus a randomly-chosen inspirational quote.
