WORD Research this...Psalms 44
- 1 We have heard with our ears, O God, Our fathers have told us, What work thou didst in their days, In the days of old.
- 2 Thou didst drive out the nations with thy hand; But them thou didst plant: Thou didst afflict the peoples; But them thou didst spread abroad.
- 3 For they gat not the land in possession by their own sword, Neither did their own arm save them; But thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, Because thou wast favorable unto them.
- 4 Thou art my King, O God: Command deliverance for Jacob.
- 5 Through thee will we push down our adversaries: Through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
- 6 For I will not trust in my bow, Neither shall my sword save me.
- 7 But thou hast saved us from our adversaries, And hast put them to shame that hate us.
- 8 In God have we made our boast all the day long, And we will give thanks unto thy name for ever. [Selah
- 9 But now thou hast cast us off, and brought us to dishonor, And goest not forth with our hosts.
- 10 Thou makest us to turn back from the adversary; And they that hate us take spoil for themselves.
- 11 Thou hast made us like sheep appointed for food, And hast scattered us among the nations.
- 12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, And hast not increased thy wealth by their price.
- 13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and a derision to them that are round about us.
- 14 Thou makest us a byword among the nations, A shaking of the head among the peoples.
- 15 All the day long is my dishonor before me, And the shame of my face hath covered me,
- 16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth, By reason of the enemy and the avenger.
- 17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, Neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
- 18 Our heart is not turned back, Neither have our steps declined from thy way,
- 19 That thou hast sore broken us in the place of jackals, And covered us with the shadow of death.
- 20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, Or spread forth our hands to a strange god;
- 21 Will not God search this out? For he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
- 22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
- 23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? Arise, cast us not off for ever.
- 24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, And forgettest our affliction and our oppression?
- 25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: Our body cleaveth unto the earth.
- 26 Rise up for our help, And redeem us for thy lovingkindness’ sake.

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.
