WORD Research this...Amos 5
- 1 Hear ye this word, which I take up concerning you for a lamentation. The house of Israel is fallen, and it shall rise no more.
- 2 The virgin of Israel is cast down upon her land, there is none to raise her up.
- 3 For thus saith the Lord God: The city, out of which came forth a thousand, there shall be left in it a hundred: and out of which there came a hundred, there shall be left in it ten, in the house of Israel.
- 4 For thus saith the Lord to the house of Israel: Seek ye me, and you shall live.
- 5 But seek not Bethel, and go not into Galgal, neither shall you pass over to Bersabee: for Galgal shall go into captivity, and Bethel shall be unprofitable.
- 6 Seek ye the Lord, and live: lest the house of Joseph be burnt with fire, and it shall devour, and there shall be none to quench Bethel.
- 7 You that turn judgment into wormwood, and forsake justice in the land,
- 8 Seek him that maketh Arcturus, and Orion, and that turneth darkness into morning, and that changeth day into night: that calleth the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name.
- 9 He that with a smile bringeth destruction upon the strong, and waste upon the mighty.
- 10 They have hated him that rebuketh in the gate: and have abhorred him that speaketh perfectly.
- 11 Therefore because you robbed the poor, and took the choice prey from him: you shall build houses with square stone, and shall not dwell in them: you shall plant most delightful vineyards, and shall not drink the wine of them.
- 12 Because I know your manifold crimes, and your grievous sins: enemies of the just, taking bribes, and oppressing the poor in the gate.
- 13 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence at that time, for it is an evil time.
- 14 Seek ye good, and not evil, that you may live: and the Lord the God of hosts will be with you, as you have said.
- 15 Hate evil, and love good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be the Lord the God of hosts may have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.
- 16 Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of hosts the sovereign Lord: In every street there shall be wailing: and in all places that are without, they shall say: Alas, alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful in lamentation to lament.
- 17 And in all vineyards there shall be wailing: because I will pass through in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
- 18 Woe to them that desire the day of the Lord: to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.
- 19 As if a man should flee from the face of a lion, and a bear should meet him: or enter into the house, and lean with his hand upon the wall, and a serpent should bite him.
- 20 Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light: and obscurity, and no brightness in it?
- 21 I hate, and have rejected your festivities: and I will not receive the odour of your assemblies.
- 22 And if you offer me holocausts, and your gifts, I will not receive them: neither will I regard the vows of your fat beasts.
- 23 Take away from me the tumult of thy songs: and I will not hear the canticles of thy harp.
- 24 But judgment shall be revealed as water, and justice as a mighty torrent.
- 25 Did you offer victims and sacrifices to me in the desert for forty years, O house of Israel?
- 26 But you carried a tabernacle for your Moloch, and the image of your idols, the star of your god, which you made to yourselves.
- 27 And I will cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the Lord, the God of hosts is his name.

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.
