WORD Research this...Proverbs 25
- 1 These are also parables of Solomon, which the men of Ezechias, king of Juda, copied out.
- 2 It is the glory of God to conceal the word, and the glory of kings to search out the speech.
- 3 The heaven above and the earth beneath, and the heart of kings is unsearchable.
- 4 Take away the rust from silver, and there shall come forth a most pure vessel:
- 5 Take away wickedness from the face of the king, and his throne shall be established with justice.
- 6 Appear not glorious before the king, and stand not in the place of great men.
- 7 For it is better that it should be said to thee: Come up hither; than that thou shouldst be humbled before the prince.
- 8 The things which thy eyes have seen, utter not hastily in a quarrel: lest afterward thou mayst not be able to make amends, when thou hast dishonoured thy friend.
- 9 Treat thy cause with thy friend, and discover not the secret to a stranger:
- 10 Lest he insult over thee, when he hath heard it, and cease not to upbraid thee. Grace and friendship deliver a man: keep these for thyself, lest thou fall under reproach.
- 11 To speak a word in due time, is like apples of gold on beds of silver.
- 12 As an earring of gold and a bright pearl, so is he that reproveth the wise, and the obedient ear.
- 13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to him that sent him, for he refresheth his soul.
- 14 As clouds, and wind, when no rain followeth, so is the man that boasteth, and doth not fulfil his promises.
- 15 By patience a prince shall be appeased, and a soft tongue shall break hardness.
- 16 Thou hast found honey, eat what is sufficient for thee, lest being glutted therewith thou vomit it up.
- 17 Withdraw thy foot from the house of thy neighbour, lest having his fill he hate thee.
- 18 A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour, is like a dart and a sword and a sharp arrow.
- 19 To trust in an unfaithful man in the time of trouble, is like a rotten tooth, and weary foot,
- 20 And one that looseth his garment in cold weather. As vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to a very evil heart. As a moth doth by a garment, and a worm by the wood: so the sadness of a man consumeth the heart.
- 21 If thy enemy be hungry, give him to eat: if he thirst, give him water to drink:
- 22 For thou shalt heap hot coals upon his head, and the Lord will reward thee.
- 23 The north wind driveth away rain, as doth a sad countenance a backbiting tongue.
- 24 It is better to sit in a corner of the housetop: than with a brawling woman, and in a common house.
- 25 As cold water to a thirsty soul, so are good tidings from a far country.
- 26 A just man falling down before the wicked, is as a fountain troubled with the foot and a corrupted spring.
- 27 As it is not good for a man to eat much honey, so he that is a searcher of majesty shall be overwhelmed by glory.
- 28 As a city that lieth open and is not compassed with walls, so is a man that cannot refrain his own spirit in speaking.

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.
