WORD Research this...1 Corinthians 7
- 1 Now concerning the things of which ye wrote to me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman.
- 2 Nevertheless, [to avoid] lewdness, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
- 3 Let the husband render to the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife to the husband.
- 4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
- 5 Defraud ye not one the other, except with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan may not tempt you for your incontinence.
- 6 But I speak this by permission, [and] not as a commandment.
- 7 For I would that all men were as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that.
- 8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they remain even as I.
- 9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
- 10 And to the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:
- 11 But if she shall depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.
- 12 But to the rest I speak, not the Lord, if any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she is pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
- 13 And the woman who hath a husband that believeth not, and if he is pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
- 14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
- 15 But if the unbelieving departeth, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such [cases]; but God hath called us to peace.
- 16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save [thy] husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save [thy] wife?
- 17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so I ordain in all churches.
- 18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not become circumcised.
- 19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
- 20 Let every man continue in the same calling in which he was called.
- 21 Art thou called [being] a servant? care not for it; but if thou mayest be made free, use [it] rather.
- 22 For he that is called in the Lord, [being] a servant, is the Lord's free-man: likewise also he that is called, [being] free, is Christ's servant.
- 23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
- 24 Brethren, let every man in the state in which he is called, continue in it with God.
- 25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment as one that hath obtained mercy from the Lord to be faithful.
- 26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, [I say], that [it is] good for a man so to be.
- 27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
- 28 But if thou marry, thou hast not sinned: and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless, such will have trouble in the flesh; but I spare you.
- 29 But this I say, brethren, The time [is] short. It remaineth, that both they that have wives, be as though they had none;
- 30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
- 31 And they that use this world, as not abusing [it]. For the fashion of this world passeth away.
- 32 But I would have you without anxious care. He that is unmarried, is anxious for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
- 33 But he that is married, is anxious for the things that are of the world, how he may please [his] wife.
- 34 There is a difference [also] between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy, both in body and in spirit: but she that is married, is anxious for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.
- 35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
- 36 But if any man thinketh that he behaveth himself uncomely towards his virgin, if she hath passed the flower of [her] age, and need so requireth, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
- 37 Nevertheless, he that standeth steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
- 38 So then he that giveth [her] in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth [her] not in marriage doeth better.
- 39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband is dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
- 40 But she is happier if she so remain, after my judgment; and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

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.- Direction: LTR

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.
