ALIVE!  Even if you don't read so well, there are many important ways for God's Word to reach you.  Bibleresources.org provides a very good introduction to Bible Study and use of helps.  Bible Hub has just about any kind of resource you could want for studying The Bible, including lexicons, dictionaries, maps, translations and a huge search of Christian resourcesBryan College has links to manuscripts and other in-depth materials.  There is even a Thesaurus, which is a very cool tool when you're not sure what you're looking for or it may be described differently in different passages.  Biblia also has many resources and translations to choose
from.  BibleGateway has an easy to use topical search and passage lookup in many different versions which can be viewed side by side for comparison.  If English is not your native language, try Bible.isEnduring Word has a Spanish Commentary.  Also check out this multilingual search and World Translations of The Bible(such as Russian, Hindi, South Korean, Somali, Arab Sharif, Dinka Rek, Nahuatl Huasteca, Inupiaq, or Samoan).

StudyLight.org has advanced content for those looking to more thoroughly understand scripture.  Strong's numbers have long allowed us to reference more detailed information about words in the KJV, and now there are exhaustive concordances for the NIV and other versions.  Word-study books for the Old and New Testaments go a step further without requiring study of the language itself.  Always remember that you should pray for and rely on The Holy Spirit to show you the correct interpretation of scripture, using man's work as a tool only and testing interpretations for correctness.  The context found in the surrounding scripture should not be ignored, which is easily done in our modern style of bite-sized information and added distractions.  We have to do whatever it takes to allow us to engage without interruption.  There are even wiki's for scriptures.  
Scripture 4 All has online Interlinear Bibles in PDF format which break down each word, and Lumina has tabs for Hebrew/Greek with convenient highlighting.  Interlinear Bibles show how the original Hebrew and Greek scriptures read compared to english translation.  When you are reading a webpage that contains a Hebrew or Greek word you can copy & paste it into transliterate.com's tool to convert it into english letters.  The Society of Biblical Literature has a Greek New Testament available for download, and Biblical and Ancient Greek Linguistics (BAGL) is an international journal for applying modern linguistics to the study of Biblical Greek.  Search for and study individual words in the Brown-Driver-Briggs Lexicon here or here.
