WORD Research this...Judith 16
- 1 Then Judith sung this canticle to the Lord, saying:
- 2 Begin ye to the Lord with timbrels, sing ye to the Lord with cymbals, tune unto him a new psalm, extol and call upon his name.
- 3 The Lord putteth an end to wars, the Lord is his name.
- 4 He hath set his camp in the midst of his people, to deliver us from the hand of all our enemies.
- 5 The Assyrian came out of the mountains from the north in the multitude of his strength: his multitude stopped up the torrents, and their horses covered the valleys.
- 6 He bragged that he would set my borders on fire, and kill my young men with the sword, to make my infants a prey, and my virgins captives.
- 7 But the almighty Lord hath struck him, and hath delivered him into the hands of a woman, and hath slain him.
- 8 For their mighty one did not fall by young men, neither did the sons of Titan strike him, nor tall giants oppose themselves to him, but Judith the daughter of Merari weakened him with the beauty of her face.
- 9 For she put off her the garments of widowhood, and put on her the garments of joy, to give joy to the children of Israel.
- 10 She anointed her face with ointment, and bound up her locks with a crown, she took a new robe to deceive him.
- 11 Her sandals ravished his eyes, her beauty made his soul her captive, with a sword she cut off his head.
- 12 The Persians quaked at her constancy, and the Medes at her boldness.
- 13 Then the camp of the Assyrians howled, when my lowly ones appeared, parched with thirst.
- 14 The sons of the damsels have pierced them through, and they have killed them like children fleeing away: they perished in battle before the face of the Lord my God.
- 15 Let us sing a hymn to the Lord, let us sing a new hymn to our God.
- 16 O Adonai, Lord, great art thou, and glorious in thy power, and no one can overcome thee.
- 17 Let all thy creatures serve thee: because thou hast spoken, and they were made: thou didst send forth thy spirit, and they were created, and there is no one that can resist thy voice.
- 18 The mountains shall be moved from the foundations with the waters: the rocks shall melt as wax before thy face.
- 19 But they that fear thee, shall be great with thee in all things.
- 20 Woe be to the nation that riseth up against my people: for the Lord almighty will take revenge on them, in the day of judgment he will visit them.
- 21 For he will give fire, and worms into their flesh, that they may burn, and may feel for ever.
- 22 And it came to pass after these things, that all the people, after the victory, came to Jerusalem to adore the Lord: and as soon as they were purified, they all offered holocausts, and vows, and their promises.
- 23 And Judith offered for an anathema of oblivion all the arms of Holofernes, which the people gave her, and the canopy that she had taken away out of his chamber.
- 24 And the people were joyful in the sight of the sanctuary, and for three months the joy of this victory was celebrated with Judith.
- 25 And after those days every man returned to his house, and Judith was made great in Bethulia, and she was most renowned in all the land of Israel.
- 26 And chastity was joined to her virtue, so that she knew no man all the days of her life, after the death of Manasses her husband.
- 27 And on festival days she came forth with great glory.
- 28 And she abode in her husband's house a hundred and five years, and made her handmaid free, and she died, and was buried with her husband in Bethulia.
- 29 And all the people mourned for seven days.
- 30 And all the time of her life there was none that troubled Israel, nor many years after her death.
- 31 But the day of the festivity of this victory is received by the Hebrews in the number of holy days, and is religiously observed by the Jews from that time until this day.

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.
