About BibleSpeak.org
The Bible Pronunciation Resource Pastors and Bible Teachers Trust
BibleSpeak.org exists to help pastors, Bible teachers, Sunday school leaders, seminary students, and anyone who studies or preaches from Scripture pronounce biblical words with total confidence — completely free.
Our Mission
Have you ever been reading aloud in a Bible study or preaching from the pulpit and stumbled over a name like Mephibosheth, Zerubbabel, or Jehoshaphat? You're not alone. Biblical names come from ancient Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek — languages most modern readers have never studied.
Mispronouncing a word mid-sermon is distracting. It can undermine your confidence and pull listeners out of the moment. BibleSpeak.org removes that barrier entirely.
Every word on this site includes a clear phonetic spelling, an audio recording, the word's biblical meaning, and historical context — everything you need to walk into any teaching or study session prepared.
What We Cover
Personal Names
Patriarchs, kings, prophets, apostles, and every named figure across both Testaments.
Places & Geography
Cities, regions, mountains, rivers, and nations mentioned in Scripture.
Hebrew & Greek Terms
Theological words, titles, and terms transliterated directly from the original languages.
Historical Context
Each entry includes the word's meaning, origin, and where it appears in the Bible.
