    Psalms 68
    •   Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.
    •   As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
    •   But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice.
    •   Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name Jah, and rejoice before him.
    •   A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
    •   God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
    •   O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah:
    •   The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
    •   Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
    • 10   Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor.
    • 11   The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.
    • 12   Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided the spoil.
    • 13   Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
    • 14   When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon.
    • 15   The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill of Bashan.
    • 16   Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the Lord will dwell in it for ever.
    • 17   The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
    • 18   Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them.
    • 19   Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.
    • 20   He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto God the Lord belong the issues from death.
    • 21   But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses.
    • 22   The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea:
    • 23   That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same.
    • 24   They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
    • 25   The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; among them were the damsels playing with timbrels.
    • 26   Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel.
    • 27   There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.
    • 28   Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
    • 29   Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
    • 30   Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, till every one submit himself with pieces of silver: scatter thou the people that delight in war.
    • 31   Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.
    • 32   Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:
    • 33   To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.
    • 34   Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
    • 35   O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.

  • 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.
