Apparently "Jesus wept" is not the shortest verse in the Bible. "He said," Job, Chapter 3 Verse 2, has been suggested. Is there a shorter one?

It depends on the translation you are using. King James Version, Job 3:2 - "And Job spake, and said." King James Version, John 11:35 - "Jesus wept". However, in more modern translations, Job 3:2 is shorter. Apr 14 06, 4:27 PM
