WORD Research this...Sirach 27
- 1 Through poverty many have sinned: and he that seeketh to be enriched, turneth away his eye.
- 2 As a stake sticketh fast in the midst of the joining of stones, so also in the midst of selling and buying, sin shall stick fast.
- 3 Sin shall be destroyed with the sinner.
- 4 Unless thou hold thyself diligently in the fear of the Lord, thy house shall quickly be overthrown.
- 5 As when one sifteth with a sieve, the dust will remain: so will the perplexity of a man in his thoughts.
- 6 The furnace trieth the potter's vessels, and the trial of affliction just men.
- 7 As the dressing of a tree sheweth the fruit thereof, so a word out of the thought of the heart of man.
- 8 Praise not a man before he speaketh, for this is the trial of men.
- 9 If thou followest justice, thou shalt obtain her: and shalt put her on as a long robe of honour, and thou shalt dwell with her: and she shall protect thee for ever, and in the day of acknowledgment thou shalt find a strong foundation.
- 10 Birds resort unto their like: so truth will return to them that practise her.
- 11 The lion always lieth in wait for prey: so do sins for them that work iniquities.
- 12 A holy man continueth in wisdom as the sun: but a fool is changed as the moon.
- 13 In the midst of the unwise keep in the word till its time: but be continually among men that think.
- 14 The discourse of sinners is hateful, and their laughter is at the pleasures of sin.
- 15 The speech that sweareth much shall make the hair of the head stand upright: and its irreverence shall make one stop his ears.
- 16 In the quarrels of the road is the shedding of blood: and their cursing is a grievous hearing.
- 17 He that discloseth the secret of a friend loseth his credit, and shall never find a friend to his mind.
- 18 Love thy neighbour, and be joined to him with fidelity.
- 19 But if thou discover his secrets, follow no more after him.
- 20 For as a man that destroyeth his friend, so is he that destroyeth the friendship of his neighbour.
- 21 And as one that letteth a bird go out of his hand, so hast thou let thy neighbour go, and thou shalt not get him again.
- 22 Follow after him no more, for he is gone afar off, he is fled, as a roe escaped out of the snare because his soul is wounded.
- 23 Thou canst no more bind him up. And of a curse there is reconciliation:
- 24 But to disclose the secrets of a friend, leaveth no hope to an unhappy soul.
- 25 He that winketh with the eye forgeth wicked things, and no man will cast him off:
- 26 In the sight of thy eyes he will sweeten his mouth, and will admire thy words: but at the last he will writhe his mouth, and on thy words he will lay a stumblingblock.
- 27 I have hated many things but not like him, and the Lord will hate him.
- 28 If one cast a stone on high, it will fall upon his own head: and the deceitful stroke will wound the deceitful.
- 29 He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that setteth a stone for his neighbour, shall stumble upon it: and he that layeth a snare for another, shall perish in it.
- 30 A mischievous counsel shall be rolled back upon the author, and he shall not know from whence it cometh to him.
- 31 Mockery and reproach are of the proud, and vengeance as a lion shall lie in wait for him.
- 32 They shall perish in a snare that are delighted with the fall of the just: and sorrow shall consume them before they die.
- 33 Anger and fury are both of them abominable, and the sinful man shall be subject to them.

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.
