The shortest "book" in any version of the Bible is Psalm 117 with only 2 verses if you define each Psalm as a book.

Psalms aside, there are some small books in both the Old Testament and New Testament. 3rd John has the fewest words in the Bible and is, therefore, the shortest. 2nd John has the fewest verses.
