Описание
The Verse of the Day Widget for WP plugin delivers daily Bible verses displayed over stunning nature backgrounds, offering both spiritual inspiration and visual beauty. Each day, a verse from the King James Version (KJV) is randomly selected and presented in the foreground, elegantly paired with a modern background scenery image generated by AI in Google’s WebP format. Now, with ChatGPT-powered language translation, you can provide these verses in over 100 languages, making it easy to inspire a global audience.
While many tools like Google Translate aim for modern readability, this plugin uses ChatGPT to offer translations that preserve the more literal phrasing found in the original Hebrew and Greek, aligning more closely with the King James Version.
