The New Testament wasn't divided into chapters until 1250 A.D. (by Cardinal Hugo for the Bible in Latin). Basically, those are the same NT chapter divisions utilized by modern Bibles.

The Old Testament:
The Pentateuch (first five books) were divided into chapters ...called sedarim... sometime prior to 586 B.C.

During the Babylonian Captivity, before 536 B.C., a division of the Pentateuch was made into 54 sections (called parashiyyoth). And, these later subdivided into 669 parts.

The Old Testament books called Prophets were made into chapters around 165 B.C.

Current OT chapter division being first employed in 1330 A.D.

Verse numbers were first employed in 1551 for the NT in Greek by Paris book publisher Robert Stephanus, and for the NT in English in 1551 by William Wittingham of Oxford.

The first entire version of Scripture in English to have verse numbers was the Geneva Bible (1560).

The Old Testament:
The Old Testament in Hebrew had spaces between sentences (although, like ancient Greek, the words within a sentence had no spaces between them).

Verse marking were later added, but not standardized for the Hebrew OT until around 900 A.D.
