## What is Selah?

Ask anything. Rooted in Scripture.

Selah is a calm, beautiful companion for reading the Bible and bringing life's real questions to it. Ask in your own words — Selah searches Scripture first, then offers a thoughtful reflection that always points back to the text, with the verses quoted and its sources shown.

DESIGNED TO BE TRUSTWORTHY

Verse text is never invented. Every quotation is fetched verbatim from a trusted Bible database — if a reference can't be grounded, it's dropped rather than made up. The AI's reflection is clearly separated from Scripture, in its own type and label, so you always know what is God's word and what is commentary.

ECUMENICAL AND NEUTRAL

Selah is written for everyone. Where traditions differ, it shows the range rather than quietly picking a side — no hidden bias dressed up as neutrality.

READ THE WHOLE BIBLE, OFFLINE

The complete 66-book canon in five public-domain translations (English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese), bundled for true offline reading — no connection required. A quiet, sacred reading view with adjustable text size. Long-press any verse to ask about it, or save it.

YOUR READING JOURNEY

See how far you've come. As you read, the whole canon fills in like an illuminated mosaic — and the passages you return to glow deeper. Gentle, never a guilt-tripping streak.

CALM BY DESIGN

Warm paper-and-ink design, considered typography, light and dark themes, and full support for five languages. Accessibility-minded throughout.

HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS

Selah is an AI companion. It leads you to Scripture; it does not replace it, and it is not a source of spiritual, medical, or psychological advice. It never claims authority of its own.

Selah is free to use — every feature, always.

SELAH SUPPORT (OPTIONAL)

If Selah has been meaningful, an optional subscription supports its development and keeps it independent — no ads, and we never sell your data. Every feature stays free without it; supporters simply help the work continue.

- Monthly: US$4.99 / month
- Annual: US$29.99 / year

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.51 — 2026-09-09

• When you reach the end of a chapter, Selah now shows one quiet card offering a way to support the app. Every verse in all five translations stays free — nothing is locked behind it. It appears at most once per launch, and choosing "Not now" keeps it away for 30 days.
• Ask no longer waits forever. If an answer does not come back, Selah now tells you it failed so you can try again, instead of leaving "Composing…" on screen with the input disabled.

### 1.0.50 — 2026-09-07

Fixes for reading on iPhone and iPad.

• The in-app text size control (Aa) now scales verse numbers along with the text.
• On iPad, Back sits at the left edge of the reading column instead of the corner of the screen.
• The day now rolls over while the app stays open — you no longer see yesterday's passage.
• Related-verse chips in History follow the language of the answer.
• Song of Songs: speaker labels (Beloved / Lover / Friends) moved out of the verse text.
• Spanish: heading words that had leaked into verse text moved to the heading.
• Onboarding buttons fit the reading column on large screens.
• The version shown in Settings matches the build you are running.

### 1.0.42 — 2026-09-06

The Psalms now carry their own titles. "A Psalm of David." "For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments." "A Song of Ascents." These lines stand above the first verse in the manuscripts, and Selah was dropping every one of them. They are back in all four Bibles that print them — English, Japanese, Korean and Spanish — 474 titles in all.

Psalm 119 is an alphabetic poem: 22 stanzas, each one beginning with the next letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The 22 headings — ALEPH, BETH, GIMEL and the rest — now stand in their own places inside the chapter, not only at the top, in the two Bibles that print them (English and Japanese).

Selah also tells iOS and the App Store which languages it speaks. The app has been fully translated into Japanese, Korean, Spanish and Portuguese for some time, but the app itself only ever declared English, so the App Store listed it as an English app.

Reading and Ask are unchanged.

### 1.0.39 — 2026-09-06

Japanese readers: 18 chapters were missing from the Kougo (口語訳) Bible — Matthew 25-28 (the Passion and the Resurrection), John 19, Romans 10, Psalms 130-139, and Proverbs 30-31. All 373 verses are in the app now. The Japanese Bible is complete.

Ask:
- Answers no longer print database identifiers where a reference belongs. Where you read "...(titus.2.13, romans.8.24)", you now read "...(Titus 2:13, Romans 8:24)" — in your own language. Answers you had already saved are corrected when you reopen them.
- The send button, and the controls beside an answer, are large enough to press.

Reading:
- "Continue reading" and the chapter arrows no longer vanish at the seam between two books. 65 chapter endings were dead ends; they now step into the next book.
- The verse of the day turns over at midnight. If you left the app open overnight, the next morning still showed you yesterday's verse.
- On the day daylight saving starts, your reading streak no longer loses a whole day.
- The text-size sample now shows a verse that is actually in your Bible.
- A bookmark inside the text grows with the text, so the mark no longer disappears first for readers using large type.
- The "related verses" chips read in your language.
- Small type stands off the background more clearly.

Also: the app is named "Selah" on the Home Screen; 23 places where a space sat in front of punctuation are closed; the opening screen's headline no longer breaks in the middle of a word; and Settings no longer shows a blank line where the identity of a reader who has not signed in would go.

### 1.0.18 — 2026-09-05

Scripture text repairs.

Where two sentences had been fused into a single word — "I am the good shepherd.The good shepherd lays down his life" — the missing space is back. 29 verses, most of them in the Gospels, Acts and Revelation.

Japanese: the 74 "Selah" notes now close their bracket instead of running straight into the verse. Portuguese: Psalm 74 no longer carries a print artifact from the 1911 edition. Three verses no longer show footnote markup as if it were scripture.

Reading:
- "Continue reading" takes you back to the verse you left, not to the top of the chapter.
- Leaving a chapter your translation does not carry keeps the verse you came from.
- The text now uses the full width of the screen.
- The bookmark control is large enough to press without opening the passage underneath it.

Also: the version shown in Settings is the version you are actually running.
