WORD Research this...Luke 5
- 1 Now it came about that while the people came pushing to be near him, and to have knowledge of the word of God, he was by a wide stretch of water named Gennesaret;
- 2 And he saw two boats by the edge of the water, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.
- 3 And he got into one of the boats, the property of Simon, and made a request to him to go a little way out from the land. And being seated he gave the people teaching from the boat.
- 4 And when his talk was ended, he said to Simon, Go out into deep water, and let down your nets for fish.
- 5 And Simon, answering, said, Master, we were working all night and we took nothing: but at your word I will let down the nets.
- 6 And when they had done this, they got such a great number of fish that it seemed as if their nets would be broken;
- 7 And they made signs to their friends in the other boat to come to their help. And they came, and the two boats were so full that they were going down.
- 8 But Simon, when he saw it, went down at the knees of Jesus and said, Go away from me, O Lord, for I am a sinner.
- 9 For he was full of wonder and so were all those who were with him, at the number of fish which they had taken;
- 10 And so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were working with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Have no fear; from this time forward you will be a fisher of men.
- 11 And when they had got their boats to the land, they gave up everything and went after him.
- 12 And it came about that while he was in one of the towns, there was a leper there: and when he saw Jesus he went down on his face in prayer to him, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.
- 13 And he put out his hand to him and said, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away his disease went from him.
- 14 And he gave him orders: Say nothing to any man, but let the priest see you and give an offering so that you may be made clean, as the law of Moses says, and for a witness to them.
- 15 But news of him went out all the more, in every direction, and great numbers of people came together to give hearing to his words and to be made well from their diseases.
- 16 But he went away by himself to a waste place for prayer.
- 17 And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.
- 18 And some men had with them, on a bed, a man who was ill, without power of moving; and they made attempts to get him in and put him before Jesus.
- 19 And because of the mass of people, there was no way to get him in; so they went up on the top of the house and let him down through the roof, on his bed, into the middle in front of Jesus.
- 20 And seeing their faith he said, Man, you have forgiveness for your sins.
- 21 And the scribes and Pharisees were having an argument, saying, Who is this, who has no respect for God? who is able to give forgiveness for sins, but God only?
- 22 But Jesus, who had knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning in your hearts?
- 23 Which is the simpler: to say, You have forgiveness for your sins; or to say, Get up and go?
- 24 But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (he said to the man who was ill,) I say to you, Get up, and take up your bed, and go into your house.
- 25 And straight away he got up before them, and took up his bed and went away to his house giving praise to God.
- 26 And wonder overcame them all, and they gave glory to God; and they were full of fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.
- 27 And after these things he went out, and saw Levi, a tax-farmer, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and said to him, Come after me.
- 28 And giving up his business, he got up and went after him.
- 29 And Levi made a great feast for him in his house: and a great number of tax-farmers and others were seated at table with them.
- 30 And the Pharisees and their scribes made protests against his disciples, saying, Why do you take food and drink with tax-farmers and sinners?
- 31 And Jesus, answering, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.
- 32 I have come, not to get the upright, but sinners, so that they may be turned from their sins.
- 33 And they said to him, The disciples of John frequently go without food, and make prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees; but your disciples take food and drink.
- 34 And Jesus said, Are you able to make the friends of the newly-married man go without food when he is with them?
- 35 But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.
- 36 And he said to them, in a story, No man takes a bit of cloth from a new coat and puts it on to an old coat, for so the new coat would be damaged and the bit from the new would not go well with the old.
- 37 And no man puts new wine into old wine-skins, for fear that the skins will be burst by the new wine, and the wine be let out, and the skins come to destruction.
- 38 But new wine has to be put into new wine-skins.
- 39 And no man, having had old wine, has any desire for new, for he says, The old is better.

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.
