    Luke 5
    •   And it came to pass, that as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret.
    •   And saw two boats standing by the lake: but the fishermen had gone out of them, and were washing [their] nets.
    •   And he entered into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the boat.
    •   Now when he had left speaking, he said to Simon, Lanch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
    •   And Simon answering said to him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing; nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net.
    •   And when they had done this, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net broke.
    •   And they beckoned to [their] partners, who were in the other boat, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
    •   When Simon Peter saw [it], he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
    •   For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:
    • 10   And so [was] also James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not: from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
    • 11   And when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all, and followed him.
    • 12   And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold, a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus, fell on [his] face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
    • 13   And he put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying, I will: Be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
    • 14   And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded for a testimony to them.
    • 15   But so much the more a fame of him went abroad: and great multitudes came together to hear and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
    • 16   And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.
    • 17   And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was [present] to heal them.
    • 18   And behold, men brought in a bed a man who was taken with the palsy: and they sought [means] to bring him in, and to lay [him] before him.
    • 19   And when they could not find by what [way] they might bring him in, because of the multitude, they went upon the house-top, and let him down through the tiling with [his] couch, into the midst before Jesus.
    • 20   And when he saw their faith, he said to him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
    • 21   And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this who speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?
    • 22   But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering, said to them, What reason ye in your hearts?
    • 23   Which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise and walk?
    • 24   But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, He said to the sick with the palsy, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thy house.
    • 25   And immediately he arose before them, and took up that on which he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.
    • 26   And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.
    • 27   And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said to him, Follow me.
    • 28   And he left all, arose, and followed him.
    • 29   And Levi made him a great feast in his own house; and there was a great company of publicans, and of others that sat down with them.
    • 30   But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
    • 31   And Jesus answering, said to them, They that are well need not a physician; but they that are sick.
    • 32   I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
    • 33   And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise [the disciples] of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?
    • 34   And he said to them, Can ye make the children of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
    • 35   But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then they will fast in those days.
    • 36   And he spoke also a parable to them: No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old: if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was [taken] out of the new, agreeth not with the old.
    • 37   And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles will perish.
    • 38   But new wine must be put into new bottles, and both are preserved.
    • 39   No man also having drank old [wine], immediately desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.

    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.
