WORD Research this...Proverbs 19
- 1 Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity Than he that is perverse in his lips and is a fool.
- 2 Also, that the soul be without knowledge is not good; And he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
- 3 The foolishness of man subverteth his way; And his heart fretteth against Jehovah.
- 4 Wealth addeth many friends; But the poor is separated from his friend.
- 5 A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that uttereth lies shall not escape.
- 6 Many will entreat the favor of the liberal man; And every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
- 7 All the brethren of the poor do hate him: How much more do his friends go far from him! He pursueth them with words, but they are gone.
- 8 He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: He that keepeth understanding shall find good.
- 9 A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that uttereth lies shall perish.
- 10 Delicate living is not seemly for a fool; Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
- 11 The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger; And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
- 12 The king’s wrath is as the roaring of a lion; But his favor is as dew upon the grass.
- 13 A foolish son is the calamity of his father; And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
- 14 House and riches are an inheritance from fathers; But a prudent wife is from Jehovah.
- 15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; And the idle soul shall suffer hunger.
- 16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his soul; But he that is careless of his ways shall die.
- 17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto Jehovah, And his good deed will he pay him again.
- 18 Chasten thy son, seeing there is hope; And set not thy heart on his destruction.
- 19 A man of great wrath shall bear the penalty; For if thou deliver him, thou must do it yet again.
- 20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, That thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
- 21 There are many devices in a man’s heart; But the counsel of Jehovah, that shall stand.
- 22 That which maketh a man to be desired is his kindness; And a poor man is better than a liar.
- 23 The fear of Jehovahtendethto life; And hethat hath itshall abide satisfied; He shall not be visited with evil.
- 24 The sluggard burieth his hand in the dish, And will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.
- 25 Smite a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; And reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
- 26 He that doeth violence to his father, and chaseth away his mother, Is a son that causeth shame and bringeth reproach.
- 27 Cease, my son, to hear instruction Onlyto err from the words of knowledge.
- 28 A worthless witness mocketh at justice; And the mouth of the wicked swalloweth iniquity.
- 29 Judgments are prepared for scoffers, And stripes for the back of fools.

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.
