    John 18
    •   When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples.
    •   Now Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft-times resorted thither with his disciples.
    •   Judas then, having received the band of soldiers, and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.
    •   Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them, Whom seek ye?
    •   They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
    •   When therefore he said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.
    •   Again therefore he asked them, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.
    •   Jesus answered, I told you that I am he; if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:
    •   that the word might be fulfilled which he spake, Of those whom thou hast given me I lost not one.
    • 10   Simon Peter therefore having a sword drew it, and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the servant’s name was Malchus.
    • 11   Jesus therefore said unto Peter, Put up the sword into the sheath: the cup which the Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
    • 12   So the band and the chief captain, and the officers of the Jews, seized Jesus and bound him,
    • 13   and led him to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
    • 14   Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
    • 15   And Simon Peter followed Jesus, andso didanother disciple. Now that disciple was known unto the high priest, and entered in with Jesus into the court of the high priest;
    • 16   but Peter was standing at the door without. So the other disciple, who was known unto the high priest, went out and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.
    • 17   The maid therefore that kept the door saith unto Peter, Art thou also one of this man’s disciples? He saith, I am not.
    • 18   Now the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals; for it was cold; and they were warming themselves: and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.
    • 19   The high priest therefore asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his teaching.
    • 20   Jesus answered him, I have spoken openly to the world; I ever taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and in secret spake I nothing.
    • 21   Why askest thou me? ask them that have heard me, what I spake unto them: behold, these know the things which I said.
    • 22   And when he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?
    • 23   Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?
    • 24   Annas therefore sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.
    • 25   Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore unto him, Art thou also one of his disciples? He denied, and said, I am not.
    • 26   One of the servants of the high priest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?
    • 27   Peter therefore denied again: and straightway the cock crew.
    • 28   They lead Jesus therefore from Caiaphas into the Prætorium: and it was early; and they themselves entered not into the Prætorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.
    • 29   Pilate therefore went out unto them, and saith, What accusation bring ye against this man?
    • 30   They answered and said unto him, If this man were not an evil-doer, we should not have delivered him up unto thee.
    • 31   Pilate therefore said unto them, Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. The Jews said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
    • 32   that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying by what manner of death he should die.
    • 33   Pilate therefore entered again into the Prætorium, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
    • 34   Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?
    • 35   Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
    • 36   Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.
    • 37   Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
    • 38   Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find no crime in him.
    • 39   But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
    • 40   They cried out therefore again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

  • American Standard Version (asv - 2)

    2021-02-18

    English (en)

    The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.

    The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.

    While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.

    Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.

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.
