WORD Research this...Proverbs 16
- 1 It is the part of man to prepare the soul: and of the Lord to govern the tongue.
- 2 All the ways of a man are open to his eyes: the Lord is the weigher of spirits.
- 3 Lay open thy works to the Lord: and thy thoughts shall be directed.
- 4 The Lord hath made all things for himself: the wicked also for the evil day.
- 5 Every proud man is an abomination to the Lord: though hand should be joined to hand, he is not innocent. The beginning of a good way is to do justice: and this is more acceptable with God, than to offer sacrifices.
- 6 By mercy and truth iniquity is redeemed; and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil.
- 7 When the ways of man shall please the Lord, he will convert even his enemies to peace.
- 8 Better is a little with justice, than great revenues with iniquity.
- 9 The heart of man disposeth his way: but the Lord must direct his steps.
- 10 Divination is in the lips of the king, his mouth shall not err in judgment.
- 11 Weight and balance are judgments of the Lord: and his work all the weights of the bag.
- 12 They that act wickedly are abominable to the king: for the throne is established by justice.
- 13 Just lips are the delight of kings: he that speaketh right things shall be loved.
- 14 The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: and the wise man will pacify it.
- 15 In the cheerfulness of the king's countenance is life: and his clemency is like the latter rain.
- 16 Get wisdom, because it is better than gold: and purchase prudence, for it is more precious than silver.
- 17 The path of the just departeth from evils: he that keepeth his soul keepeth his way.
- 18 Pride goeth before destruction: and the spirit is lifted up before a fall.
- 19 It is better to be humbled with the meek, than to divide spoils with the proud.
- 20 The learned in word shall find good things: and he that trusteth in the Lord is blessed.
- 21 The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and he that is sweet in words, shall attain to greater things.
- 22 Knowledge is a fountain of life to him that possesseth it: the instruction of fools is foolishness.
- 23 The heart of the wise shall instruct his mouth: and shall add grace to his lips.
- 24 Well ordered words are as a honeycomb: sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
- 25 There is a way that seemeth to a man right: and the ends thereof lead to death.
- 26 The soul of him that laboureth, laboureth for himself, because his mouth hath obliged him to it.
- 27 The wicked man diggeth evil, and in his lips is a burning fire.
- 28 A perverse man stirreth up quarrels: and one full of words separateth princes.
- 29 An unjust man allureth his friend: and leadeth him into a way that is not good.
- 30 He that with fixed eyes deviseth wicked things, biting his lips, bringeth evil to pass.
- 31 Old age is a crown of dignity, when it is found in the ways of justice.
- 32 The patient man is better than the valiant: and he that ruleth his spirit, than he that taketh cities.
- 33 Lots are cast into the lap, but they are disposed of by the Lord.

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.
