    Mark 1
    •   The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
    •   As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, which shall prepare your way before you.
    •   The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
    •   John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
    •   And there went out to him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
    •   And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
    •   And preached, saying, There comes one mightier than I after me, the lace of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
    •   I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
    •   And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
    • 10   And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending on him:
    • 11   And there came a voice from heaven, saying, You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
    • 12   And immediately the spirit drives him into the wilderness.
    • 13   And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.
    • 14   Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
    • 15   And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel.
    • 16   Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
    • 17   And Jesus said to them, Come you after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
    • 18   And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.
    • 19   And when he had gone a little farther there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.
    • 20   And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
    • 21   And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
    • 22   And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
    • 23   And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
    • 24   Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with you, you Jesus of Nazareth? are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy One of God.
    • 25   And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold your peace, and come out of him.
    • 26   And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
    • 27   And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commands he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.
    • 28   And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
    • 29   And immediately, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
    • 30   But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and immediately they tell him of her.
    • 31   And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
    • 32   And at even, when the sun did set, they brought to him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.
    • 33   And all the city was gathered together at the door.
    • 34   And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
    • 35   And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
    • 36   And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
    • 37   And when they had found him, they said to him, All men seek for you.
    • 38   And he said to them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.
    • 39   And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
    • 40   And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him, If you will, you can make me clean.
    • 41   And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and says to him, I will; be you clean.
    • 42   And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
    • 43   And he straightly charged him, and immediately sent him away;
    • 44   And says to him, See you say nothing to any man: but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
    • 45   But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

  • American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)

    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.
