    Matthew 14
    •   At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
    •   And said to his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him.
    •   For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.
    •   For John said to him, It is not lawful for you to have her.
    •   And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
    •   But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.
    •   Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she would ask.
    •   And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.
    •   And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.
    • 10   And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
    • 11   And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.
    • 12   And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.
    • 13   When Jesus heard of it, he departed there by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities.
    • 14   And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.
    • 15   And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.
    • 16   But Jesus said to them, They need not depart; give you them to eat.
    • 17   And they say to him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
    • 18   He said, Bring them here to me.
    • 19   And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and broke, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
    • 20   And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
    • 21   And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.
    • 22   And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
    • 23   And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.
    • 24   But the ship was now in the middle of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
    • 25   And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.
    • 26   And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
    • 27   But straightway Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
    • 28   And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be you, bid me come to you on the water.
    • 29   And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
    • 30   But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
    • 31   And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said to him, O you of little faith, why did you doubt?
    • 32   And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
    • 33   Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth you are the Son of God.
    • 34   And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.
    • 35   And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought to him all that were diseased;
    • 36   And sought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.
    •   At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,
    •   And said to his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him.
    •   For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias’ sake, his brother Philip’s wife.

    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.
