WORD Research this...Sirach 49
- 1 The memory of Josias is like the composition of a sweet smell made by the art of a perfumer:
- 2 His remembrance shall be sweet as honey in every mouth, and as music at a banquet of wine.
- 3 He was directed by God unto the repentance of the nation, and he took away the abominations of wickedness.
- 4 And he directed his heart towards the Lord, and in the days of sinners he strengthened godliness.
- 5 Except David, and Ezechias and Josias, all committed sin.
- 6 For the kings of Juda forsook the law of the most High, and despised the fear of God.
- 7 So they gave their kingdom to others, and their glory to a strange nation,
- 8 They burnt the chosen city of holiness, and made the streets thereof desolate according to the prediction of Jeremias.
- 9 For they treated him evil, who was consecrated a prophet from his mother's womb, to overthrow, and pluck up, and destroy, and to build again, and renew.
- 10 It was Ezechiel that saw the glorious vision, which was shewn him upon the chariot of cherubims.
- 11 For he made mention of the enemies under the figure of rain, and of doing good to them that shewed right ways.
- 12 And may the bones of the twelve prophets spring up out of their place: for they strengthened Jacob, and redeemed themselves by strong faith.
- 13 How shall we magnify Zorobabel? for he was as a signet on the right hand;
- 14 In like manner Jesus the son of Josedec who in their days built the house, and set up a holy temple to the Lord, prepared for everlasting glory.
- 15 And let Nehemias be a long time remembered, who raised up for us our walls that were cast down, and set up the gates and the bars, who rebuilt our houses.
- 16 No man was born upon earth like Henoch: for he also was taken up from the earth.
- 17 Nor as Joseph, who was a man born prince of his brethren, the support of his family, the ruler of his brethren, the stay of the people:
- 18 And his bones were visited, and after death they prophesied.
- 19 Seth and Sem obtained glory among men: and above every soul Adam in the beginning,

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.
