WORD Research this...Genesis 6
- 1 And after a time, when men were increasing on the earth, and had daughters,
- 2 The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took wives for themselves from those who were pleasing to them.
- 3 And the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will be a hundred and twenty years.
- 4 There were men of great strength and size on the earth in those days; and after that, when the sons of God had connection with the daughters of men, they gave birth to children: these were the great men of old days, the men of great name.
- 5 And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.
- 6 And the Lord had sorrow because he had made man on the earth, and grief was in his heart.
- 7 And the Lord said, I will take away man, whom I have made, from the face of the earth, even man and beast and that which goes on the earth and every bird of the air; for I have sorrow for having made them.
- 8 But Noah had grace in the eyes of God.
- 9 These are the generations of Noah. Noah was an upright man and without sin in his generation: he went in the ways of God.
- 10 And Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
- 11 And the earth was evil in God's eyes and full of violent ways.
- 12 And God, looking on the earth, saw that it was evil: for the way of all flesh had become evil on the earth.
- 13 And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh has come; the earth is full of their violent doings, and now I will put an end to them with the earth.
- 14 Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood with rooms in it, and make it safe from the water inside and out.
- 15 And this is the way you are to make it: it is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high.
- 16 You are to put a window in the ark, a cubit from the roof, and a door in the side of it, and you are to make it with a lower and second and third floors.
- 17 For truly, I will send a great flow of waters over the earth, for the destruction from under the heaven of all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything on the earth will come to an end.
- 18 But with you I will make an agreement; and you will come into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons' wives with you.
- 19 And you will take with you into the ark two of every sort of living thing, and keep them safe with you; they will be male and female.
- 20 Two of every sort of bird and cattle and of every sort of living thing which goes on the earth will you take with you to keep them from destruction.
- 21 And make a store of every sort of food for yourself and them.
- 22 And all these things Noah did; as God said, so he did.

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.
