    Lamentations 3
    • 1   I [am] the man [that] hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
    • 2   He hath led me, and brought [me into] darkness, but not [into] light.
    • 3   Surely against me is he turned; he turneth his hand [against me] all the day.
    • 4   My flesh and my skin hath he made old; he hath broken my bones.
    • 5   He hath built against me, and compassed [me] with gall and labor.
    • 6   He hath set me in dark places, as [they that are] dead of old.
    • 7   He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.
    • 8   Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
    • 9   He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
    • 10   He [was] to me [as] a bear lying in wait, [and as] a lion in secret places.
    • 11   He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.
    • 12   He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
    • 13   He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.
    • 14   I was a derision to all my people; [and] their song all the day.
    • 15   He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood.
    • 16   He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
    • 17   And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.
    • 18   And I said, My strength and my hope hath perished from the LORD:
    • 19   Remembering my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
    • 20   My soul hath [them] still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
    • 21   This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
    • 22   [It is of] the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
    • 23   [They are] new every morning: great [is] thy faithfulness.
    • 24   The LORD [is] my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
    • 25   The LORD [is] good to them that wait for him, to the soul [that] seeketh him.
    • 26   [It is] good that [a man] should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
    • 27   [It is] good for a man that he should bear the yoke in his youth.
    • 28   He sitteth alone, and keepeth silence, because he hath borne [it] upon him.
    • 29   He putteth his mouth in the dust; if there may be hope.
    • 30   He giveth [his] cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
    • 31   For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
    • 32   But though he causeth grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
    • 33   For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
    • 34   To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,
    • 35   To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,
    • 36   To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
    • 37   Who [is] he [that] saith, and it cometh to pass, [when] the Lord commandeth [it] not?
    • 38   Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
    • 39   Why doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
    • 40   Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.
    • 41   Let us lift up our heart with [our] hands to God in the heavens.
    • 42   We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
    • 43   Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.
    • 44   Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that [our] prayer should not pass through.
    • 45   Thou hast made us [as] the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.
    • 46   All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.
    • 47   Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.
    • 48   My eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
    • 49   My eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
    • 50   Till the LORD shall look down, and behold from heaven.
    • 51   My eye affecteth my heart because of all the daughters of my city.
    • 52   My enemies chased me fiercely, like a bird without cause.
    • 53   They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.
    • 54   Waters flowed over my head; [then] I said, I am cut off.
    • 55   I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.
    • 56   Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thy ear at my breathing, at my cry.
    • 57   Thou drewest near in the day [that] I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.
    • 58   O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
    • 59   O LORD, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
    • 60   Thou hast seen all their vengeance [and] all their imaginations against me.
    • 61   Thou hast heard their reproach, O LORD, [and] all their imaginations against me;
    • 62   The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
    • 63   Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I [am] their music.
    • 64   Render to them a recompense, O LORD, according to the work of their hands.
    • 65   Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse to them.
    • 66   Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the LORD.

    THE HOLY BIBLE,

    Webster Bible Electronic Format.
    PUBLIC DOMAIN

    February 1992

    Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

    I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

    I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.

Basic Hash Usage Explained

At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.

We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.

Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.

Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.

Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.

The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.

We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.

Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
