WORD Research this...Genesis 21
- 1 And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.
- 2 For Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
- 3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
- 4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
- 5 And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born to him. ¶
- 6 And Sarah said, God has made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
- 7 And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.
- 8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned. ¶
- 9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born to Abraham, mocking.
- 10 Why she said to Abraham, Cast out this female slave and her son: for the son of this female slave shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
- 11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son. ¶
- 12 And God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in your sight because of the lad, and because of your female slave; in all that Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice; for in Isaac shall your seed be called.
- 13 And also of the son of the female slave will I make a nation, because he is your seed.
- 14 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
- 15 And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
- 16 And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bow shot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.
- 17 And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, What ails you, Hagar? fear not; for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.
- 18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in your hand; for I will make him a great nation.
- 19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
- 20 And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelled in the wilderness, and became an archer.
- 21 And he dwelled in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt. ¶
- 22 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spoke to Abraham, saying, God is with you in all that you do:
- 23 Now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son: but according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land wherein you have sojourned.
- 24 And Abraham said, I will swear.
- 25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
- 26 And Abimelech said, I know not who has done this thing; neither did you tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to day.
- 27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
- 28 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
- 29 And Abimelech said to Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves?
- 30 And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shall you take of my hand, that they may be a witness to me, that I have dig this well.
- 31 Why he called that place Beersheba; because there they swore both of them.
- 32 Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines. ¶
- 33 And Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the everlasting God.
- 34 And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines' land many days.
- 1 And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.
- 2 For Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
- 3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
- 4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.

- 12 And God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in your sight because of the lad, and because of your female slave; in all that Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice; for in Isaac shall your seed be called.
- 13 And also of the son of the female slave will I make a nation, because he is your seed.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.

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.
