WORD Research this...Sirach 3
- 1 The sons of wisdom are the church of the just: and their generation, obedience and love.
- 2 Children, hear the judgment of your father, and so do that you may be saved.
- 3 For God hath made the father honourable to the children: and seeking the judgment of the mothers, hath confirmed it upon the children.
- 4 He that loveth God, shall obtain pardon for his sins by prayer, and shall refrain himself from them, and shall be heard in the prayer of days.
- 5 And he that honoureth his mother is as one that layeth up a treasure.
- 6 He that honoureth his father shall have joy in his own children, and in the day of his prayer he shall be heard.
- 7 He that honoureth his father shall enjoy a long life: and he that obeyeth the father, shall be a comfort to his mother.
- 8 He that feareth the Lord, honoureth his parents, and will serve them as his masters that brought him into the world.
- 9 Honour thy father, in work and word, and all patience,
- 10 That a blessing may come upon thee from him, and his blessing may remain in the latter end.
- 11 The father's blessing establisheth the houses of the children: but the mother's curse rooteth up the foundation.
- 12 Glory not in the dishonour of thy father: for his shame is no glory to thee.
- 13 For the glory of a man is from the honour of his father, and a father without honour is the disgrace of the son.
- 14 Son, support the old age of thy father, and grieve him not in his life;
- 15 And if his understanding fail, have patience with him, and despise him not when thou art in thy strength: for the relieving of the father shall not be forgotten.
- 16 For good shall be repaid to thee for the sin of thy mother.
- 17 And in justice thou shalt be built up, and in the day of affliction thou shalt be remembered: and thy sins shall melt away as the ice in the fair warm weather.
- 18 Of what an evil fame is he that forsaketh his father: and he is cursed of God that angereth his mother.
- 19 My son, do thy works in meekness, and thou shalt be beloved above the glory of men.
- 20 The greater thou art, the more humble thyself in all things, and thou shalt find grace before God:
- 21 For great is the power of God alone, and he is honoured by the humble.
- 22 Seek not the things that are too high for thee, and search not into things above thy ability: but the things that God hath commanded thee, think on them always, and in many of his works be not curious.
- 23 For it is not necessary for thee to see with thy eyes those things that are hid.
- 24 In unnecessary matters be not over curious, and in many of his works thou shalt not be inquisitive.
- 25 For many things are shewn to thee above the understanding of men.
- 26 And the suspicion of them hath deceived many, and hath detained their minds in vanity.
- 27 A hard heart shall fear evil at the last: and he that loveth danger shall perish in it.
- 28 A heart that goeth two ways shall not have success, and the perverse of heart shall be scandalized therein.
- 29 A wicked heart shall be laden with sorrows, and the sinner will add sin to sin.
- 30 The congregation of the proud shall not be healed: for the plant of wickedness shall take root in them, and it shall not be perceived.
- 31 The heart of the wise is understood in wisdom, and a good ear will hear wisdom with all desire.
- 32 A wise heart, and which hath understanding, will abstain from sins, and in the works of justice shall have success.
- 33 Water quencheth a flaming fire, and alms resisteth sins:
- 34 And God provideth for him that sheweth favour: he remembereth him afterwards, and in the time of his fall he shall find a sure stay.

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.
