    Mark 7
    •   Then came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.
    •   And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.
    •   For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.
    •   And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.
    •   Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?
    •   He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
    •   Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
    •   For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
    •   And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
    • 10   For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
    • 11   But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
    • 12   And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;
    • 13   Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
    • 14   And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:
    • 15   There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.
    • 16   If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
    • 17   And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
    • 18   And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;
    • 19   Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?
    • 20   And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
    • 21   For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
    • 22   Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
    • 23   All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
    • 24   And from thence he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but he could not be hid.
    • 25   For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:
    • 26   The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
    • 27   But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.
    • 28   And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.
    • 29   And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.
    • 30   And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.
    • 31   And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.
    • 32   And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.
    • 33   And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;
    • 34   And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
    • 35   And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.
    • 36   And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it;
    • 37   And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

  • 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.
