    2 Samuel 22
    •   And David spoke to the LORD the words of this song in the day [that] the LORD had delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul:
    •   And he said, The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer;
    •   The God of my rock; in him will I trust: [he is] my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my preserver; thou savest me from violence.
    •   I will call on the LORD, [who is] worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.
    •   When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly-men made me afraid;
    •   The sorrows of hell encompassed me; the snares of death seized me;
    •   In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry [entered] into his ears.
    •   Then the earth shook and trembled: the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
    •   There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
    • 10   He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness [was] under his feet.
    • 11   And he rode upon a cherub, and flew: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
    • 12   And he made darkness pavilions around him, dark waters, [and] thick clouds of the skies.
    • 13   Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
    • 14   The LORD thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
    • 15   And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
    • 16   And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were laid open, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
    • 17   He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
    • 18   He delivered me from my strong enemy, from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
    • 19   They fell upon me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my support.
    • 20   He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
    • 21   The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
    • 22   For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
    • 23   For all his judgments [were] before me: and [as for] his statutes, I did not depart from them.
    • 24   I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from my iniquity.
    • 25   Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye-sight.
    • 26   With the merciful thou wilt show thyself merciful, [and] with the upright man thou wilt show thyself upright.
    • 27   With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt contend.
    • 28   And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thy eyes [are] upon the haughty, [that] thou mayest bring [them] down.
    • 29   For thou [art] my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.
    • 30   For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.
    • 31   [As for] God, his way [is] perfect; the word of the LORD [is] tried: he [is] a buckler to all them that trust in him.
    • 32   For who [is] God, save the LORD? and who [is] a rock, save our God?
    • 33   God [is] my strength [and] power: and he maketh my way perfect.
    • 34   He maketh my feet like hinds' [feet]: and setteth me upon my high places.
    • 35   He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms.
    • 36   Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.
    • 37   Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet have not slipped.
    • 38   I have pursued my enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.
    • 39   And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they have fallen under my feet.
    • 40   For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.
    • 41   Thou hast also given me the necks of my enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.
    • 42   They looked, but [there was] none to save; [even] to the LORD, but he answered them not.
    • 43   Then I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I stamped them as the mire of the street, [and] spread them abroad.
    • 44   Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me [to be] head of the heathen: a people [which] I knew not shall serve me.
    • 45   Strangers shall submit themselves to me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient to me.
    • 46   Strangers shall fade away, and they shall tremble from their close places.
    • 47   The LORD liveth; and blessed [be] my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
    • 48   It [is] God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me,
    • 49   And that bringeth me forth from my enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
    • 50   Therefore I will give thanks to thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and I will sing praises to thy name.
    • 51   [He is] the tower of salvation for his king: and [he] showeth mercy to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.

    Webster Bible Electronic Format.
    PUBLIC DOMAIN

    February 1992

    Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

    I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

    I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.

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.
