WORD Research this...Proverbs 15
- 1 A soft answer turns away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
- 2 The tongue of the wise uses knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools pours out foolishness.
- 3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
- 4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
- 5 A fool despises his father's instruction: but he that regards reproof is prudent.
- 6 In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.
- 7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish does not so.
- 8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
- 9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but he loves him that follows after righteousness.
- 10 Correction is grievous to him that forsakes the way: and he that hates reproof shall die.
- 11 Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
- 12 A scorner loves not one that reproves him: neither will he go to the wise.
- 13 A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
- 14 The heart of him that has understanding seeks knowledge: but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.
- 15 All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart has a continual feast.
- 16 Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith.
- 17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
- 18 A wrathful man stirs up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeases strife.
- 19 The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain.
- 20 A wise son makes a glad father: but a foolish man despises his mother.
- 21 Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walks uprightly.
- 22 Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
- 23 A man has joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!
- 24 The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.
- 25 The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow.
- 26 The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.
- 27 He that is greedy of gain troubles his own house; but he that hates gifts shall live.
- 28 The heart of the righteous studies to answer: but the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.
- 29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
- 30 The light of the eyes rejoices the heart: and a good report makes the bones fat.
- 31 The ear that hears the reproof of life stays among the wise.
- 32 He that refuses instruction despises his own soul: but he that hears reproof gets understanding.
- 33 The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honor is humility.

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.
