WORD Research this...Job 16
- 1 Then Job answered and said,
- 2 I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are you all.
- 3 Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldens you that you answer?
- 4 I also could speak as you do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake my head at you.
- 5 But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should assuage your grief.
- 6 Though I speak, my grief is not assuaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?
- 7 But now he has made me weary: you have made desolate all my company.
- 8 And you have filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me bears witness to my face.
- 9 He tears me in his wrath, who hates me: he gnashes on me with his teeth; my enemy sharpens his eyes on me.
- 10 They have gaped on me with their mouth; they have smitten me on the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.
- 11 God has delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
- 12 I was at ease, but he has broken me asunder: he has also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
- 13 His archers compass me round about, he splits my reins asunder, and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground.
- 14 He breaks me with breach on breach, he runs on me like a giant.
- 15 I have sewed sackcloth on my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
- 16 My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
- 17 Not for any injustice in my hands: also my prayer is pure.
- 18 O earth, cover not you my blood, and let my cry have no place.
- 19 Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
- 20 My friends scorn me: but my eye pours out tears to God.
- 21 O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleads for his neighbor!
- 22 When a few years are come, then I shall go the way from where I shall not return.

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.
