    Luke 7
    • 1   Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
    • 2   And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and ready to die.
    • 3   And when he heard of Jesus, he sent to him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
    • 4   And when they came to Jesus, they sought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
    • 5   For he loves our nation, and he has built us a synagogue.
    • 6   Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, trouble not yourself: for I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof:
    • 7   Why neither thought I myself worthy to come to you: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
    • 8   For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say to one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.
    • 9   When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned him about, and said to the people that followed him, I say to you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
    • 10   And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.
    • 11   And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.
    • 12   Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.
    • 13   And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, Weep not.
    • 14   And he came and touched the bier: and they that bore him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Arise.
    • 15   And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.
    • 16   And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God has visited his people.
    • 17   And this rumor of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.
    • 18   And the disciples of John showed him of all these things.
    • 19   And John calling to him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Are you he that should come? or look we for another?
    • 20   When the men were come to him, they said, John Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he that should come? or look we for another?
    • 21   And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and to many that were blind he gave sight.
    • 22   Then Jesus answering said to them, Go your way, and tell John what things you have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
    • 23   And blessed is he, whoever shall not be offended in me.
    • 24   And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the people concerning John, What went you out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
    • 25   But what went you out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
    • 26   But what went you out for to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
    • 27   This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, which shall prepare your way before you.
    • 28   For I say to you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
    • 29   And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
    • 30   But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
    • 31   And the Lord said, To what then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
    • 32   They are like to children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped to you, and you have not danced; we have mourned to you, and you have not wept.
    • 33   For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say, He has a devil.
    • 34   The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and you say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a drunkard, a friend of publicans and sinners!
    • 35   But wisdom is justified of all her children.
    • 36   And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.
    • 37   And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
    • 38   And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
    • 39   Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that touches him: for she is a sinner.
    • 40   And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to you. And he says, Master, say on.
    • 41   There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
    • 42   And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
    • 43   Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said to him, You have rightly judged.
    • 44   And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, See you this woman? I entered into your house, you gave me no water for my feet: but she has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
    • 45   You gave me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in has not ceased to kiss my feet.
    • 46   My head with oil you did not anoint: but this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.
    • 47   Why I say to you, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.
    • 48   And he said to her, Your sins are forgiven.
    • 49   And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgives sins also?
    • 50   And he said to the woman, Your faith has saved you; go in peace.
    • 1   Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
    • 2   And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and ready to die.

    English (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.
