    Luke 11
    •   And it came to pass, as he was praying in a certain place, that when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, even as John also taught his disciples.
    •   And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Father, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come.
    •   Give us day by day our daily bread.
    •   And forgive us our sins; for we ourselves also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And bring us not into temptation.
    •   And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
    •   for a friend of mine is come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him;
    •   and he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee?
    •   I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will arise and give him as many as he needeth.
    •   And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
    • 10   For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
    • 11   And of which of you that is a father shall his son ask a loaf, and he give him a stone? or a fish, and he for a fish give him a serpent?
    • 12   Or if he shall ask an egg, will he give him a scorpion?
    • 13   If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
    • 14   And he was casting out a demon that was dumb. And it came to pass, when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spake; and the multitudes marvelled.
    • 15   But some of them said, By Beelzebub the prince of the demons casteth he out demons.
    • 16   And others, trying him, sought of him a sign from heaven.
    • 17   But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.
    • 18   And if Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out demons by Beelzebub.
    • 19   And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges.
    • 20   But if I by the finger of God cast out demons, then is the kingdom of God come upon you.
    • 21   When the strong man fully armed guardeth his own court, his goods are in peace:
    • 22   but when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him his whole armor wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
    • 23   He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.
    • 24   The unclean spirit when he is gone out of the man, passeth through waterless places, seeking rest, and finding none, he saith, I will turn back unto my house whence I came out.
    • 25   And when he is come, he findeth it swept and garnished.
    • 26   Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more evil than himself; and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man becometh worse than the first.
    • 27   And it came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the breasts which thou didst suck.
    • 28   But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
    • 29   And when the multitudes were gathering together unto him, he began to say, This generation is an evil generation: it seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it but the sign of Jonah.
    • 30   For even as Jonah became a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
    • 31   The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
    • 32   The men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
    • 33   No man, when he hath lighted a lamp, putteth it in a cellar, neither under the bushel, but on the stand, that they which enter in may see the light.
    • 34   The lamp of thy body is thine eye: when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when it is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
    • 35   Look therefore whether the light that is in thee be not darkness.
    • 36   If therefore thy whole body be full of light, having no part dark, it shall be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining doth give thee light.
    • 37   Now as he spake, a Pharisee asketh him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.
    • 38   And when the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first bathed himself before dinner.
    • 39   And the Lord said unto him, Now ye the Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter; but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
    • 40   Ye foolish ones, did not he that made the outside make the inside also?
    • 41   But give for alms those things which are within; and behold, all things are clean unto you.
    • 42   But woe unto you Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and every herb, and pass over justice and the love of God: but these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
    • 43   Woe unto you Pharisees! for ye love the chief seats in the synagogues, and the salutations in the marketplaces.
    • 44   Woe unto you! for ye are as the tombs which appear not, and the men that walk over them know it not.
    • 45   And one of the lawyers answering saith unto him, Teacher, in saying this thou reproachest us also.
    • 46   And he said, Woe unto you lawyers also! for ye load men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
    • 47   Woe unto you! for ye build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
    • 48   So ye are witnesses and consent unto the works of your fathers: for they killed them, and ye build their tombs.
    • 49   Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send unto them prophets and apostles; and some of them they shall kill and persecute;
    • 50   that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
    • 51   from the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary: yea, I say unto you, it shall be required of this generation.
    • 52   Woe unto you lawyers! for ye took away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.
    • 53   And when he was come out from thence, the scribes and the Pharisees began to press upon him vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many things;
    • 54   laying wait for him, to catch something out of his mouth.

  • American Standard Version (asv - 2)

    2021-02-18

    English (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.

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.
