WORD Research this...Philippians 2
- 1 If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassions,
- 2 make full my joy, that ye be of the same mind, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
- 3 doing nothing through faction or through vainglory, but in lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself;
- 4 not looking each of you to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
- 5 Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
- 6 who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped,
- 7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men;
- 8 and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
- 9 Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and gave unto him the name which is above every name;
- 10 that in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven and things on earth and things under the earth,
- 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
- 12 So then, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
- 13 for it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.
- 14 Do all things without murmurings and questionings:
- 15 that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom ye are seen as lights in the world,
- 16 holding forth the word of life; that I may have whereof to glory in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain neither labor in vain.
- 17 Yea, and if I am offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all:
- 18 and in the same manner do ye also joy, and rejoice with me.
- 19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
- 20 For I have no man likeminded, who will care truly for your state.
- 21 For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.
- 22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a child serveth a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the gospel.
- 23 Him therefore I hope to send forthwith, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me:
- 24 but I trust in the Lord that I myself also shall come shortly.
- 25 But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-worker and fellow-soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need;
- 26 since he longed after you all, and was sore troubled, because ye had heard that he was sick:
- 27 for indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.
- 28 I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
- 29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy; and hold such in honor:
- 30 because for the work of Christ he came nigh unto death, hazarding his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.

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.
