Registered and Copyrighted (see below)
VerseryRhymes is a unique and refreshing translation/paraphrase of the New Testament verse-by-verse. It is referred to it as a “translation/paraphrase” because it is both. The author’s graduate degree is in Biblical languages: Hebrew and Greek. He leaned heavily on the Greek New Testament as well as several English translations for his sources. He has been teaching the Bible for 40 years. He began VerseryRhymes more than 10 years ago while he was teaching a Bible study on the Gospel of John. He ended our study of each chapter with a rhyming translation of the text. The group encouraged him to publish his writing.
VerseryRhymes is a good translation/paraphrase for all ages. Many use it for devotional readings. Some pastors use it in the pulpit. It is a good resource for Bible study groups, which is where it got its start. It is a flowing, easy to understand rendering of the text.
The complete New Testament was finished in June 2014. The authors has a Master’s Degree in Biblical languages, a Doctor of Ministry degree, as well as, a Juris Doctor degree

EXCERPTS:
Matthew 5 - The Beatitudes
“Blessed are the poor in spirit
And blessed are those who grieve
For the kingdom of heaven is theirs
And comfort they’ll receive
Blessed are the meek
Although they feel they have no worth
God will show them favor
And they will inherit the earth
Blessed are those who desire what is right
Fulfillment they will find
Blessed are those who show mercy
For they shall be treated in kind
Blessed are the pure in heart
It is God they will view
And you will be called sons of God
If peace is what you pursue
Blessed are those who are persecuted
For what they know is right
They may insult and ridicule you
And falsely seek to indict
Rejoice and be glad because in heaven
Great is the reward you are due
For in the same way they also persecuted
The prophets who were before you”

REVELATION: CHAPTER FIVE
Then I saw a scroll in the right hand
Of him who sat upon the throne
There was writing on both sides
And with seven seals it was sewn
I saw a mighty angel
He asked in a loud voice
Who is worthy to open the scroll?
Who will make that choice?
But no one in heaven or on earth
Or under the earth could do it
Then I wept because no one
Could open the scroll and view it
Then one of the elders said “Do not cry!
See, Judah's Lion and David's Root
He has triumphed
His strength is beyond repute.
He can break the seals
And take the scroll in hand
Then I saw a Lamb walk out
And in the throne’s center stand
Encircled by the elders
And the four living creatures
Looking as if it had been slain
The Lamb with amazing features
He had seven horns and eyes
Which looked rather odd
Then I was told the horns and eyes
Were the seven spirits of God
He came and took the Scroll
From the one on the throne
For only he could take it
Only he alone
Then the creatures and the elders
Fell before him on the ground
With incense and harps
They joined and made this sound
The sound they made was a new song
“You are worthy the scroll to unseal
For you were slain
And with your blood God worked his will”
Through his blood he purchased men
From various places of birth
You have made them priests
And they will rule on earth
Then I saw thousands of angels
And I heard them sing their song
As they along with the elders
And the creatures encircled the throne
They sang: “Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the one who was slain
To receive power, wisdom & strength
And glory and praise to gain”
Then every creature everywhere
Joined the universal song
Praise, honor and glory to the Lamb
And the one sitting on the throne
The four living creatures
Said "Amen" let it be
And the elders fell down
And worshiped willingly
Then I saw a scroll in the right hand
Of him who sat upon the throne
There was writing on both sides
And with seven seals it was sewn
I saw a mighty angel
He asked in a loud voice
Who is worthy to open the scroll?
Who will make that choice?
But no one in heaven or on earth
Or under the earth could do it

2 Peter 5
You younger men, be subject to your elders
Everyone should clothe yourselves with humility
For God is opposed to the proud
But gives grace to those who act modestly
Therefore humble yourselves
Under God’s mighty hand
That he may exalt you
On that day that he has planned
Cast all your worries on him
Because he cares for you
Be of sober spirit and on alert
Because of what your adversary seeks to do
The devil prowls like a lion
Seeking someone to devour
But resist him and be firm in your faith
During that testing hour
You younger men, be subject to your elders
Everyone should clothe yourselves with humility
For God is opposed to the proud
But gives grace to those who act modestly
Therefore humble yourselves
Under God’s mighty hand
That he may exalt you
On that day that he has planned
Cast all your worries on him
Because he cares for you
Be of sober spirit and on alert
Because of what your adversary seeks to do
The devil prowls like a lion
Seeking someone to devour
But resist him and be firm in your faith
During that testing hour
