Best Answer

A concordance like Strong's Exhaustive Bible Concordance contains a word count of every word in The Bible with the passages where they appear cross-referenced to the original Hebrew or Greek word. There are concordances for nearly each different translation of the Bible (NIV, KJV, etc.).

Note that word counts can differ given what translation was used. Likewise, some word counts may or may not include word variations (e.g., verb tenses held, hold and holds vs singular/plural forms: lion/lions).

An online version can be found in the related links below.

Additional Answer:

As the above is absolutely correct, suffice it to say that there are just over 3/4 of a million words (773,000) in a particular version and most others would be around this number - perhaps within 10% deviation at the most.
