    Ephesians 5
    • 1   Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
    • 2   And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
    • 3   But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
    • 4   Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
    • 5   For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
    • 6   Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
    • 7   Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
    • 8   For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
    • 9   (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
    • 10   Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
    • 11   And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
    • 12   For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
    • 13   But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
    • 14   Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
    • 15   See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
    • 16   Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
    • 17   Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
    • 18   And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
    • 19   Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
    • 20   Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
    • 21   Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
    • 22   Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
    • 23   For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
    • 24   Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
    • 25   Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
    • 26   That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
    • 27   That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
    • 28   So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
    • 29   For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
    • 30   For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
    • 31   For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
    • 32   This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
    • 33   Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

  • King James Version (kjv - 3.1)

    2023-07-19

    English (en)

    This is the King James Version of the Holy Bible (also known as the Authorized Version) with embedded Strong's Numbers. The rights to the base text are held by the Crown of England.
    The Strong's numbers in the OT were obtained from The Bible Foundation: http://www.bf.org. The NT Strong's data was obtained from The KJV2003 Project at CrossWire: http://www.crosswire.org. These mechanisms provide a useful means for looking up the exact original language word in a lexicon that is keyed to Strong's numbers.

    Special thanks to the volunteers at Bible Foundation for keying the Hebrew/English data and of Project KJV2003 for working toward the completion of synchronizing the English phrases to the Stephanas Textus Receptus, and to Dr. Maurice Robinson for providing the base Greek text with Strong's and Morphology.
    We are also appreciative of formatting markup that was provided by Michael Paul Johnson at http://www.ebible.org. Their time and generosity to contribute such for the free use of the Body of Christ is a great blessing and this derivitive work could not have been possible without these efforts of so many individuals.
    Version 3.1 incorporates a more recent set of TR data from Dr. Maurice Robinson than was used in all the earlier versions. The TR data was obtained in 2016 from the Greek New Testament sources website
    https://sites.google.com/a/wmail.fi/greeknt/home/greeknt
    This was integrated into the OSIS source files of an intermediate version 2.9a hosted at
    https://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/kjv2011/kjv2.9a/
    It is in this spirit that we in turn offer the KJV2003 Project text freely for any purpose.
    Any copyright that might be obtained for this effort is held by CrossWire Bible Society © 2003-2023 and CrossWire Bible Society hereby grants a general public license to use this text for any purpose.

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.
