WORD Research this...Job 6
- 1 But Job answered and said,
- 2 Oh that my grief were thoroughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!
- 3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.
- 4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinks up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
- 5 Does the wild ass bray when he has grass? or lows the ox over his fodder?
- 6 Can that which is unsavory be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
- 7 The things that my soul refused to touch are as my sorrowful meat.
- 8 Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me the thing that I long for!
- 9 Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
- 10 Then should I yet have comfort; yes, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
- 11 What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is my end, that I should prolong my life?
- 12 Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass?
- 13 Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?
- 14 To him that is afflicted pity should be showed from his friend; but he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
- 15 My brothers have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away;
- 16 Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid:
- 17 What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
- 18 The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.
- 19 The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.
- 20 They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed.
- 21 For now you are nothing; you see my casting down, and are afraid.
- 22 Did I say, Bring to me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?
- 23 Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?
- 24 Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
- 25 How forcible are right words! but what does your arguing reprove?
- 26 Do you imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?
- 27 Yes, you overwhelm the fatherless, and you dig a pit for your friend.
- 28 Now therefore be content, look on me; for it is evident to you if I lie.
- 29 Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yes, return again, my righteousness is in it.
- 30 Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?

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.
