    Romans 15
    •   Now we that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
    •   Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, unto edifying.
    •   For Christ also pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell upon me.
    •   For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that through patience and through comfort of the scriptures we might have hope.
    •   Now the God of patience and of comfort grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus:
    •   that with one accord ye may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
    •   Wherefore receive ye one another, even as Christ also received you, to the glory of God.
    •   For I say that Christ hath been made a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given unto the fathers,
    •   and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles, And sing unto thy name.
    • 10   And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
    • 11   And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; And let all the peoples praise him.
    • 12   And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be the root of Jesse, And he that ariseth to rule over the Gentiles; On him shall the Gentiles hope.
    • 13   Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
    • 14   And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
    • 15   But I write the more boldly unto you in some measure, as putting you again in remembrance, because of the grace that was given me of God,
    • 16   that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus unto the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
    • 17   I have therefore my glorying in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.
    • 18   For I will not dare to speak of any things save those which Christ wrought through me, for the obedience of the Gentiles, by word and deed,
    • 19   in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and round about even unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ;
    • 20   yea, making it my aim so to preach the gospel, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build upon another man’s foundation;
    • 21   but, as it is written, They shall see, to whom no tidings of him came, And they who have not heard shall understand.
    • 22   Wherefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you:
    • 23   but now, having no more any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come unto you,
    • 24   whensoever I go unto Spain (for I hope to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first in some measure I shall have been satisfied with your company)—
    • 25   but now, I say, I go unto Jerusalem, ministering unto the saints.
    • 26   For it hath been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints that are at Jerusalem.
    • 27   Yea, it hath been their good pleasure; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to minister unto them in carnal things.
    • 28   When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by you unto Spain.
    • 29   And I know that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.
    • 30   Now I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;
    • 31   that I may be delivered from them that are disobedient in Judæa, and that my ministration which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;
    • 32   that I may come unto you in joy through the will of God, and together with you find rest.
    • 33   Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

  • 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.
