This Web site provides information about how often each word occurs in the (KJV) Bible.

For each chapter in the Bible, there is a separate, corresponding Web page.

Each of those Web pages displays a sortable table with 5 columns of information for each word in that chapter:

  1. Word: the word
  2. In chapter: The number of times that word occurs in that Bible chapter
  3. In KJV: The number of times that word occurs in the entire Bible
  4. Simple Freq: The simple, unweighted relative frequency of that word in this chapter. This is calculated as the total number of words in the Bible multiplied by the quotient of:
    • In chapter (2nd column): The number of times that word occurs in that Bible chapter
    •     divided by:
    • In KJV (3rd column): The number of times that word occurs in the entire Bible
  5. Weighted Freq: The weighted relative frequency of that word in this chapter. This is the sum of:
    • Simple Freq (4th column) divided by the total number of words in the chapter
    •     and
    • In chapter (2nd column) - 1

Each page also links to a downloadable .csv file containing the same information.

For more information about relative frequencies, see our examples.
