It depends how you measure "longest":
- By chapters (and by far): Psalms — 150 chapters.
- By number of verses: Psalms also has the most verses (about 2,461 in common counts).
- By word count: in the original Hebrew Jeremiah is usually considered the longest book; in English translations the longest by words can vary by which translation you use.
If you want exact counts for a particular translation (KJV, NIV, ESV, etc.), tell me which one and I’ll give the numbers.
