    1 Chronicles 16
    •   So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.
    •   And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
    •   And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine.
    •   And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord, and to record, and to thank and praise the Lord God of Israel:
    •   Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed–edom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;
    •   Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
    •   Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the Lord into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
    •   Give thanks unto the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.
    •   Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works.
    • 10   Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
    • 11   Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.
    • 12   Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
    • 13   O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
    • 14   He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
    • 15   Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations;
    • 16   Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;
    • 17   And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
    • 18   Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;
    • 19   When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.
    • 20   And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people;
    • 21   He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,
    • 22   Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
    • 23   Sing unto the Lord, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation.
    • 24   Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.
    • 25   For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.
    • 26   For all the gods of the people are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.
    • 27   Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.
    • 28   Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
    • 29   Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
    • 30   Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.
    • 31   Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.
    • 32   Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein.
    • 33   Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the Lord, because he cometh to judge the earth.
    • 34   O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
    • 35   And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, and glory in thy praise.
    • 36   Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the Lord.
    • 37   So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the Lord Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required:
    • 38   And Obed–edom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obed–edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be porters:
    • 39   And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place that was at Gibeon,
    • 40   To offer burnt offerings unto the Lord upon the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and to do according to all that is written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded Israel;
    • 41   And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the Lord, because his mercy endureth for ever;
    • 42   And with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should make a sound, and with musical instruments of God. And the sons of Jeduthun were porters.
    • 43   And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.

  • King James Version (kjv - 3.1)

    2023-07-19

    English (en)

    This is the King James Version of the Holy Bible (also known as the Authorized Version) with embedded Strong's Numbers. The rights to the base text are held by the Crown of England.
    The Strong's numbers in the OT were obtained from The Bible Foundation: http://www.bf.org. The NT Strong's data was obtained from The KJV2003 Project at CrossWire: http://www.crosswire.org. These mechanisms provide a useful means for looking up the exact original language word in a lexicon that is keyed to Strong's numbers.

    Special thanks to the volunteers at Bible Foundation for keying the Hebrew/English data and of Project KJV2003 for working toward the completion of synchronizing the English phrases to the Stephanas Textus Receptus, and to Dr. Maurice Robinson for providing the base Greek text with Strong's and Morphology.
    We are also appreciative of formatting markup that was provided by Michael Paul Johnson at http://www.ebible.org. Their time and generosity to contribute such for the free use of the Body of Christ is a great blessing and this derivitive work could not have been possible without these efforts of so many individuals.
    Version 3.1 incorporates a more recent set of TR data from Dr. Maurice Robinson than was used in all the earlier versions. The TR data was obtained in 2016 from the Greek New Testament sources website
    https://sites.google.com/a/wmail.fi/greeknt/home/greeknt
    This was integrated into the OSIS source files of an intermediate version 2.9a hosted at
    https://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/kjv2011/kjv2.9a/
    It is in this spirit that we in turn offer the KJV2003 Project text freely for any purpose.
    Any copyright that might be obtained for this effort is held by CrossWire Bible Society © 2003-2023 and CrossWire Bible Society hereby grants a general public license to use this text for any purpose.

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.
