41:1-13
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
3 The LORD will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.
4 I said, LORD, be merciful unto me: heal my soul; for I have sinned against thee.
5 Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?
6 And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.
7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.
8
An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth
he shall rise up no more.
9
Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my
bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.
10
But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite
them.
11
By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph
over me.
12
And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before
thy face for ever.
13
Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting.
Amen, and Amen.

Chapter pagesd are split into two columns. On the left is the text of the King James Version of the Bible, and on the right is my summary of the text. There are also links to the footnotes, which can be found below the text and summary columns. The footnotes provide additional information about the material in the text, with external links, YouTube videos, etc.
In the header of every chapter page you'll find a "Bible Books" drop-down menu that displays the books in the Bible, with links to the chapters in each book of the Bible and Apocrypha. This allows you to go to any chapter in the Bible from any chapter page. And there are forward and back arrows at the top and bottom of every chapter page that will take you to the next chapter of the book.
There is also a small scripture book icon on the upper right corner of each chapter page. Clicking that will open a pop-up that provides links to all the chapters in that chapter's book. Clicking on the book icon again will close the pop-up.
Each chapter includes one or more section headings on the left, with category icons on the right. Clicking on these icons displays a list of category items in that section. (I am currently working on this feature, so some of the chapter pages will display the category items for the entire chapter, rather than for the section alone.
Since the print size of the text on chapter pages is rather small on most mobile devices, it may be easier to read when viewing in landscape mode. Of course, you can always pinch to enlarge when necessary.
