Any tips or suggestions on studying the bible?

Sometimes when I'm reading a Bible chapter I'll be reading it but I have to read some lines several times because It's like I read it but none of it stuck to me. So I wanted to know if anyone had any tips on what to do so that as much of a bible chapter sticks to me as possible. Like should I take notes? If so what kind of notes or if there is some sort of guided notes out there you know of. I have tried doing summaries of chapters and rewriting all of it in my own words but that can take too much time. Please leave any suggestions below.

I recommend getting a modern version of translated text in your language. Over the years you may have to read it several times to comprehend what exactly the message is telling you. Memorizing verses is not as important as contemplating the meaning. And Please, Please keep an open mind while reading it. Historical/cultural context is everything.
