WORD Research this...Sirach 15
- 1 He that feareth God, will do good: and he that possesseth justice, shall lay hold on her,
- 2 And she will meet him as an honourable mother, and will receive him as a wife married of a virgin.
- 3 With the bread of life and understanding, she shall feed him, and give him the water of wholesome wisdom to drink: and she shall be made strong in him, and he shall not be moved.
- 4 And she shall hold him fast, and he shall not be confounded: and she shall exalt him among his neighbours.
- 5 And in the midst of the church she shall open his mouth, and shall fill him with the spirit of wisdom and understanding, and shall clothe him with a robe of glory.
- 6 She shall heap upon him a treasure of joy and gladness, and shall cause him to inherit an everlasting name.
- 7 But foolish men shall not obtain her, and wise men shall meet her, foolish men shall not see her: for she is far from pride and deceit.
- 8 Lying men shall be mindful of her: but men that speak truth shall be found with her, and shall advance, even till they come to the sight of God.
- 9 Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner:
- 10 For wisdom came forth from God: for praise shall be with the wisdom of God, and shall abound in a faithful mouth, and the sovereign Lord will give praise unto it.
- 11 Say not: It is through God, that she is not with me: for do not thou the things that he hateth.
- 12 Say not: He hath caused me to err: for he hath no need of wicked men.
- 13 The Lord hateth all abomination of error, and they that fear him shall not love it.
- 14 God made man from the beginning, and left him in the hand of his own counsel.
- 15 He added his commandments and precepts.
- 16 If thou wilt keep the commandments and perform acceptable fidelity for ever, they shall preserve thee.
- 17 He hath set water and fire before thee: stretch forth thy hand to which thou wilt.
- 18 Before man is life and death, good and evil, that which he shall choose shall be given him:
- 19 For the wisdom of God is great, and he is strong in power, seeing all men without ceasing.
- 20 The eyes of the Lord are towards them that fear him, and he knoweth al the work of man.
- 21 He hath commanded no man to do wickedly, and he hath given no man license to sin;
- 22 For he desireth not a multitude of faithless and unprofitable children.

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.
