Translations and Scripture Rights

We use only Bible translations that are in the public domain or openly licensed and free to use online, so the scripture can be shown on the web, in email, and in archives without restriction.

• English: World English Bible (WEB), a public-domain modern English translation. Digital edition from eBible.org (eng-web).
• Spanish: Reina-Valera 1909, a public-domain Spanish translation. Digital edition from eBible.org (spaRV1909).
• Brazilian Portuguese: not yet available. Portuguese devotionals will start once a verified public-domain Portuguese translation is in place; until then none are published.

AI models choose which passage to use by reference only. The application then retrieves the exact wording from the stored text for that language and checks it character for character. Scripture is never written, paraphrased, or translated by a model.

We never alter the wording of either text; the World English Bible name, in particular, applies only to the unaltered text.

Each devotional is first written in English. Separate AI model calls then adapt the reflection, context, action, and prayer into Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese, aiming for natural language rather than a word-for-word rendering. Each adaptation is checked automatically against the English meaning before it is published.

Older translations use some vocabulary and phrasing that can feel formal or dated. Verse numbering occasionally differs between traditions. An adapted reflection may sometimes read less naturally than text written by a native speaker. If you spot a language problem, please report it through the contact page.

A new language is added only when a Bible text with clear rights is available and that language passes the same full year of test runs and safety checks required of the current languages.
