Alot of people say that it is: John 11:35 'Jesus wept.'

But;
Job 3:2: "He said:" (New internatial version)

So what would be theoreticaly correct?
Would it be Job 3:2 because it's in NIV?

Or John becuase it's is King James?

I guess you would have to decide on language and paraphrase conditions.

I think I may have found the smallest prophet.

Habakkuk 2:1a (King James Version) I will stand upon my watch,

He must be super small to stand on his watch. O_o

i guess its your definition of what is considered the "right" bible. since they're all edited...
you can never really say...unless you have a rough draft of the original bible.
i enjoyed both anyways.

Wouldn't you just go back to the greek bible and see how short each verse is?

I dont prefer the NIV bible, they deleted some of the verses of the bible completly from it, heres a websight showing some facts about it. http://www.jesus-is-lord.com/nivdelet.htm
Its good for quick refrences, but i dont think it is a very good bible, thats just my oppinion though
