WORD Research this...Job 34
- 1 Moreover Elihu answered and said,
- 2 Hear my words, ye wise men; And give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.
- 3 For the ear trieth words, As the palate tasteth food.
- 4 Let us choose for us that which is right: Let us know among ourselves what is good.
- 5 For Job hath said, I am righteous, And God hath taken away my right:
- 6 Notwithstanding my right I am accounted a liar; My wound is incurable, though I amwithout transgression.
- 7 What man is like Job, Who drinketh up scoffing like water,
- 8 Who goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, And walketh with wicked men?
- 9 For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing That he should delight himself with God.
- 10 Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be it from God, that he should do wickedness, And from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.
- 11 For the work of a man will he render unto him, And cause every man to find according to his ways.
- 12 Yea, of a surety, God will not do wickedly, Neither will the Almighty pervert justice.
- 13 Who gave him a charge over the earth? Or who hath disposed the whole world?
- 14 If he set his heart upon himself, Ifhe gather unto himself his spirit and his breath;
- 15 All flesh shall perish together, And man shall turn again unto dust.
- 16 If nowthou hastunderstanding, hear this: Hearken to the voice of my words.
- 17 Shall even one that hateth justice govern? And wilt thou condemn him that is righteous and mighty?—
- 18 Himthat saith to a king, Thou art vile, Orto nobles, Ye arewicked;
- 19 That respecteth not the persons of princes, Nor regardeth the rich more than the poor; For they all are the work of his hands.
- 20 In a moment they die, even at midnight; The people are shaken and pass away, And the mighty are taken away without hand.
- 21 For his eyes are upon the ways of a man, And he seeth all his goings.
- 22 There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, Where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
- 23 For he needeth not further to consider a man, That he should go before God in judgment.
- 24 He breaketh in pieces mighty men in ways past finding out, And setteth others in their stead.
- 25 Therefore he taketh knowledge of their works; And he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed.
- 26 He striketh them as wicked men In the open sight of others;
- 27 Because they turned aside from following him, And would not have regard in any of his ways:
- 28 So that they caused the cry of the poor to come unto him, And he heard the cry of the afflicted.
- 29 When he giveth quietness, who then can condemn? And when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? Alike whether it be done unto a nation, or unto a man:
- 30 That the godless man reign not, That there be none to ensnare the people.
- 31 For hath any said unto God, I have bornechastisement, I will not offend any more:
- 32 That which I see not teach thou me: If I have done iniquity, I will do it no more?
- 33 Shall his recompense be as thou wilt, that thou refusest it? For thou must choose, and not I: Therefore speak what thou knowest.
- 34 Men of understanding will say unto me, Yea, every wise man that heareth me:
- 35 Job speaketh without knowledge, And his words are without wisdom.
- 36 Would that Job were tried unto the end, Because of his answering like wicked men.
- 37 For he addeth rebellion unto his sin; He clappeth his hands among us, And multiplieth his words against God.

American Standard Version (asv - 2)
2021-02-18English (en)
The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.- Encoding: UTF-8

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.
