What is the shortest verse in the Bible (Vulgate)?
The first Bible containing both the Old and New Testaments (and Apocrypha) with chapters and verse numbers was that of Robert Stephanus, 1551. Here's a challenge: What is the shortest verse in this Latin text?
As a rule, I don't trust Wikipedia without corroboration, but I've been through the Vulgate, and they are right this time.

The shortest verse in the King James Version is easy enough to find, John 11:35, " Jesus wept." But in the Latin Vulgate would be Isaiah 10:8, "Dicet enim."

According to various Web sources including Wikipedia mirrors (with obvious caution about reliability since I'm suspicous about not being able to find any book corroboration):
Isaias 10: 8 - "Dicet enim" ("For he shall say"). http://www.latinvulgate.com/verse.aspx?t=0&b=27&c=...
