WORD Research this...Proverbs 30
- 1 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the prophecy: the man spoke to Ithiel, even to Ithiel and Ucal,
- 2 Surely I am more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man.
- 3 I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy.
- 4 Who has ascended up into heaven, or descended? who has gathered the wind in his fists? who has bound the waters in a garment? who has established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if you can tell?
- 5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield to them that put their trust in him.
- 6 Add you not to his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar.
- 7 Two things have I required of you; deny me them not before I die:
- 8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me:
- 9 Lest I be full, and deny you, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain.
- 10 Accuse not a servant to his master, lest he curse you, and you be found guilty.
- 11 There is a generation that curses their father, and does not bless their mother.
- 12 There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.
- 13 There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
- 14 There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
- 15 The horse leach has two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three things that are never satisfied, yes, four things say not, It is enough:
- 16 The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and the fire that says not, It is enough.
- 17 The eye that mocks at his father, and despises to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
- 18 There be three things which are too wonderful for me, yes, four which I know not:
- 19 The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent on a rock; the way of a ship in the middle of the sea; and the way of a man with a maid.
- 20 Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eats, and wipes her mouth, and says, I have done no wickedness.
- 21 For three things the earth is disquieted, and for four which it cannot bear:
- 22 For a servant when he reigns; and a fool when he is filled with meat;
- 23 For an odious woman when she is married; and an handmaid that is heir to her mistress.
- 24 There be four things which are little on the earth, but they are exceeding wise:
- 25 The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;
- 26 The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks;
- 27 The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands;
- 28 The spider takes hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces.
- 29 There be three things which go well, yes, four are comely in going:
- 30 A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turns not away for any;
- 31 A greyhound; an he goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up.
- 32 If you have done foolishly in lifting up yourself, or if you have thought evil, lay your hand on your mouth.
- 33 Surely the churning of milk brings forth butter, and the wringing of the nose brings forth blood: so the forcing of wrath brings forth strife.

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.
