    Acts 27
    • 1   And when our sailing to Italy was determined, they were delivering up both Paul and certain others, prisoners, to a centurion, by name Julius, of the band of Sebastus,
    • 2   and having embarked in a ship of Adramyttium, we, being about to sail by the coasts of Asia, did set sail, there being with us Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica,
    • 3   on the next day also we touched at Sidon, and Julius, courteously treating Paul, did permit him , having gone on unto friends, to receive their care.
    • 4   And thence, having set sail, we sailed under Cyprus, because of the winds being contrary,
    • 5   and having sailed over the sea over-against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myria of Lycia,
    • 6   and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria, sailing to Italy, did put us into it,
    • 7   and having sailed slowly many days, and with difficulty coming over-against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over-against Salmone,
    • 8   and hardly passing it, we came to a certain place called `Fair Havens,' nigh to which was the city of Lasaea.
    • 9   And much time being spent, and the sailing being now dangerous--because of the fast also being already past--Paul was admonishing,
    • 10   saying to them, `Men, I perceive that with hurt, and much damage, not only of the lading and of the ship, but also of our lives--the voyage is about to be;'
    • 11   but the centurion to the pilot and to the shipowner gave credence more than to the things spoken by Paul;
    • 12   and the haven being incommodious to winter in, the more part gave counsel to sail thence also, if by any means they might be able, having attained to Phenice, there to winter, which is a haven of Crete, looking to the south-west and north-west,
    • 13   and a south wind blowing softly, having thought they had obtained their purpose, having lifted anchor, they sailed close by Crete,
    • 14   and not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, that is called Euroclydon,
    • 15   and the ship being caught, and not being able to bear up against the wind, having given her up, we were borne on,
    • 16   and having run under a certain little isle, called Clauda, we were hardly able to become masters of the boat,
    • 17   which having taken up, they were using helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they may fall on the quicksand, having let down the mast--so were borne on.
    • 18   And we, being exceedingly tempest-tossed, the succeeding day they were making a clearing,
    • 19   and on the third day with our own hands the tackling of the ship we cast out,
    • 20   and neither sun nor stars appearing for more days, and not a little tempest lying upon us, thenceforth all hope was taken away of our being saved.
    • 21   And there having been long fasting, then Paul having stood in the midst of them, said, `It behoved you , indeed, O men--having hearkened to me--not to set sail from Crete, and to save this hurt and damage;
    • 22   and now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there shall be no loss of life among you--but of the ship;
    • 23   for there stood by me this night a messenger of God--whose I am, and whom I serve--
    • 24   saying, Be not afraid Paul; before Caesar it behoveth thee to stand; and, lo, God hath granted to thee all those sailing with thee;
    • 25   wherefore be of good cheer, men! for I believe God, that so it shall be, even as it hath been spoken to me,
    • 26   and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast.'
    • 27   And when the fourteenth night came--we being borne up and down in the Adria--toward the middle of the night the sailors were supposing that some country drew nigh to them;
    • 28   and having sounded they found twenty fathoms, and having gone a little farther, and again having sounded, they found fifteen fathoms,
    • 29   and fearing lest on rough places we may fall, out of the stern having cast four anchors, they were wishing day to come.
    • 30   And the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and having let down the boat to the sea, in pretence as if out of the foreship they are about to cast anchors,
    • 31   Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, `If these do not remain in the ship--ye are not able to be saved;'
    • 32   then the soldiers did cut off the ropes of the boat, and suffered it to fall off.
    • 33   And till the day was about to be, Paul was calling upon all to partake of nourishment, saying, `Fourteen days to-day, waiting, ye continue fasting, having taken nothing,
    • 34   wherefore I call upon you to take nourishment, for this is for your safety, for of not one of you shall a hair from the head fall;'
    • 35   and having said these things, and having taken bread, he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken it , he began to eat;
    • 36   and all having become of good cheer, themselves also took food,
    • 37   (and we were--all the souls in the ship--two hundred, seventy and six),
    • 38   and having eaten sufficient nourishment, they were lightening the ship, casting forth the wheat into the sea.
    • 39   And when the day came, they were not discerning the land, but a certain creek were perceiving having a beach, into which they took counsel, if possible, to thrust forward the ship,
    • 40   and the anchors having taken up, they were committing it to the sea, at the same time--having loosed the bands of the rudders, and having hoisted up the mainsail to the wind--they were making for the shore,
    • 41   and having fallen into a place of two seas, they ran the ship aground, and the fore-part, indeed, having stuck fast, did remain immoveable, but the hinder-part was broken by the violence of the waves.
    • 42   And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,
    • 43   but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, hindered them from the counsel, and did command those able to swim, having cast themselves out first--to get unto the land,
    • 44   and the rest, some indeed upon boards, and some upon certain things of the ship; and thus it came to pass that all came safe unto the land.

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.
