WORD Research this...Job 8
- 1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
- 2 How long will you speak these things? and how long shall the words of your mouth be like a strong wind?
- 3 Does God pervert judgment? or does the Almighty pervert justice?
- 4 If your children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;
- 5 If you would seek to God betimes, and make your supplication to the Almighty;
- 6 If you were pure and upright; surely now he would awake for you, and make the habitation of your righteousness prosperous.
- 7 Though your beginning was small, yet your latter end should greatly increase.
- 8 For inquire, I pray you, of the former age, and prepare yourself to the search of their fathers:
- 9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days on earth are a shadow:)
- 10 Shall not they teach you, and tell you, and utter words out of their heart?
- 11 Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?
- 12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it wither before any other herb.
- 13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:
- 14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.
- 15 He shall lean on his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
- 16 He is green before the sun, and his branch shoots forth in his garden.
- 17 His roots are wrapped about the heap, and sees the place of stones.
- 18 If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen you.
- 19 Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
- 20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:
- 21 Till he fill your mouth with laughing, and your lips with rejoicing.
- 22 They that hate you shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nothing.

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.
