    Luke 16
    • 1   Yesu aliwaambia wanafunzi wake: "Tajiri mmoja alikuwa na karani wake. Huyu karani alichongewa kwamba alitumia ovyo mali ya tajiri wake.
    • 2   Yule tajiri akamwita akamwambia: Ni mambo gani haya ninayosikia juu yako? Toa hesabu ya mapato na matumizi ya mali yangu, kwa maana huwezi kuwa karani tena.
    • 3   Yule karani akafikiri: Bwana wangu amenifukuza kazi ya ukarani; nitafanya nini? Kwenda kulima siwezi; kwenda kuombaomba kama maskini ni aibu.
    • 4   Naam, najua la kufanya, ili nitakapofukuzwa kazi, watu waweze kunikaribisha nyumbani kwao.
    • 5   Basi, akawaita wadeni wa bwana wake, mmoja mmoja, akamwambia yule wa kwanza: Unadaiwa kiasi gani na bwana wangu?
    • 6   Yeye akamjibu: Mapipa mia ya mafuta ya zeituni. Yule karani akamwambia: Chukua hati yako ya deni, keti haraka, andika hamsini.
    • 7   Kisha akamwuliza mdeni mwingine: Wewe unadaiwa kiasi gani? Yeye akamjibu: Magunia mia ya ngano. Yule karani akamwambia: Chukua hati yako ya deni, andika themanini.
    • 8   "Basi, yule bwana akamsifu huyo karani asiye mwaminifu, kwa kuwa alitumia busara. Kwa maana watu wa dunia hii wana busara zaidi na mambo yao kuliko watu wa mwanga."
    • 9   Naye Yesu akaendelea kusema, "Nami nawaambieni, jifanyieni marafiki kutokana na mali ya dunia, ili zitakapowaishieni, mweze kupokewa nao katika makao ya milele.
    • 10   Yeyote aliye mwaminifu katika mambo madogo, atakuwa mwaminifu katika mambo makubwa; na yeyote asiye mwaminifu katika mambo madogo, hatakuwa mwaminifu katika mambo makubwa.
    • 11   Kama basi, ninyi si hamjawa waaminifu mali mbaya za dunia, ni nani atakayewakabidhi zile mali za kweli?
    • 12   Na kama hamjakuwa waaminifu katika mali ya mtu mwingine, ni nani atakayewakabidhi mali yenu wenyewe?
    • 13   "Hakuna mtumishi awezaye kuwatumikia mabwana wawili; kwa maana atamchukia mmoja na kumpenda mwingine, au ataambatana na mmoja na kumdharau mwingine. Hamwezi kumtumikia Mungu na mali."
    • 14   Lakini Mafarisayo waliposikia hayo, kwa vile wao walikuwa wanapenda sana fedha, wakamdharau Yesu.
    • 15   Hapo akawaambia, "Ninyi mnajifanya wema mbele ya watu, lakini Mungu anaijua mioyo yenu. Kwa maana kile kinachoonekana kuwa kitukufu mbele ya watu, Mungu anakiona kuwa takataka.
    • 16   "Sheria na maandishi ya manabii vilikuweko mpaka wakati wa Yohane mbatizaji. Tangu hapo, Ufalme wa Mungu unahubiriwa, na kila mmoja anauingia kwa nguvu.
    • 17   Lakini ni rahisi zaidi mbingu na dunia kupita, kuliko hata herufi moja ya Sheria kufutwa.
    • 18   "Yeyote anayemwacha mke wake na kuoa mwingine, anazini; na yeyote anayemwoa mwanamke aliyepewa talaka, anazini.
    • 19   "Palikuwa na mtu mmoja tajiri, ambaye alikuwa anavaa mavazi ya bei kubwa sana ya rangi ya zambarau, na ya kitani safi, na kufanya sherehe kila siku.
    • 20   Kulikuwa pia na maskini mmoja jina lake Lazaro, aliyekuwa amejaa vidonda na alikuwa analazwa mlangoni pa nyumba ya huyo tajiri.
    • 21   Lazaro alitamani kula makombo yaliyoanguka kutoka meza ya tajiri; na zaidi ya hayo, mbwa walikuwa wanakuja na kulamba vidonda vyake!
    • 22   "Ikatokea kwamba huyo maskini akafa, malaika wakamchukua, wakamweka karibu na Abrahamu. Na yule tajiri pia akafa, akazikwa.
    • 23   Huyo tajiri, alikuwa na mateso makali huko kuzimu, akainua macho yake, akamwona Abrahamu kwa mbali na Lazaro karibu naye.
    • 24   Basi, akaita kwa sauti: Baba Abrahamu, nionee huruma; umtume Lazaro angalau achovye ncha ya kidole chake katika maji, auburudishe ulimi wangu, maana ninateseka mno katika moto huu.
    • 25   Lakini Abrahamu akamjibu: Kumbuka mwanangu, kwamba ulipokea mema yako katika maisha, naye Lazaro akapokea mabaya. Sasa lakini, yeye anatulizwa, nawe unateswa.
    • 26   Licha ya hayo, kati yetu na ninyi kumewekwa shimo kubwa, ili wanaotaka kuja kwenu kutoka huku wasiweze, wala wanaotaka kutoka kwenu kuja kwetu wasiweze.
    • 27   Huyo aliyekuwa tajiri akasema: Basi baba, nakuomba umtume aende nyumbani kwa baba yangu,
    • 28   maana ninao ndugu watano, ili awaonye wasije wakaja huku kwenye mateso.
    • 29   Lakini Abrahamu akamwambia: Ndugu zako wanao Mose na manabii; waache wawasikilize hao.
    • 30   Lakini yeye akasema: Sivyo baba Abrahamu, ila kama mtu atafufuka kutoka wafu na kuwaendea, watatubu.
    • 31   Naye Abrahamu akasema: Kama hawawasikilizi Mose na manabii, hawatajali hata kama mtu angefufuka kutoka wafu."

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.
