What is the shortest chapter in the Bible?

• A. Psalm 1
• B. Psalm 150
• C. Psalm 117
• D. Psalm 119

Answer: (C)

Chapters in the Bible vary in length, and the shortest chapter is Psalm 117, which has only two verses. It crisply calls all nations to praise the LORD and notes His great steadfast love toward us along with the LORD’s enduring faithfulness. This tiny chapter shows that even a brief passage can carry a powerful message. For context, other brief chapters exist—Psalm 1 and Psalm 150 each have six verses—while Psalm 119 is the longest chapter with 176 verses. So Psalm 117 stands out because of its two-verse brevity.
