WORD Research this...Job 37
- 1 Yea, at this my heart trembleth, And is moved out of its place.
- 2 Hear, oh, hear the noise of his voice, And the sound that goeth out of his mouth.
- 3 He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, And his lightning unto the ends of the earth.
- 4 After it a voice roareth; He thundereth with the voice of his majesty; And he restraineth not the lightnings when his voice is heard.
- 5 God thundereth marvellously with his voice; Great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend.
- 6 For he saith to the snow, Fall thou on the earth; Likewise to the shower of rain, And to the showers of his mighty rain.
- 7 He sealeth up the hand of every man, That all men whom he hath made may know it.
- 8 Then the beasts go into coverts, And remain in their dens.
- 9 Out of the chamberof the south cometh the storm, And cold out of the north.
- 10 By the breath of God ice is given; And the breadth of the waters is straitened.
- 11 Yea, he ladeth the thick cloud with moisture; He spreadeth abroad the cloud of his lightning:
- 12 And it is turned round about by his guidance, That they may do whatsoever he commandeth them Upon the face of the habitable world,
- 13 Whether it be for correction, or for his land, Or for lovingkindness, that he cause it to come.
- 14 Hearken unto this, O Job: Stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
- 15 Dost thou know how God layeth his charge upon them, And causeth the lightning of his cloud to shine?
- 16 Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, The wondrous works of him who is perfect in knowledge?
- 17 How thy garments are warm, When the earth is still by reason of the southwind?
- 18 Canst thou with him spread out the sky, Which is strong as a molten mirror?
- 19 Teach us what we shall say unto him; For we cannot set our speech in order by reason of darkness.
- 20 Shall it be told him that I would speak? Or should a man wish that he were swallowed up?
- 21 And now men see not the light which is bright in the skies; But the wind passeth, and cleareth them.
- 22 Out of the north cometh golden splendor: God hath upon him terrible majesty.
- 23 Touchingthe Almighty, we cannot find him out: He is excellent in power; And in justice and plenteous righteousness he will not afflict.
- 24 Men do therefore fear him: He regardeth not any that are wise of heart.

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.
