    Luke 19
    •   And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
    •   And, behold, there was a man named Zaccheus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
    •   And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
    •   And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
    •   And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zaccheus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.
    •   And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
    •   And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
    •   And Zaccheus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
    •   And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
    • 10   For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
    • 11   And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
    • 12   He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
    • 13   And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
    • 14   But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
    • 15   And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
    • 16   Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
    • 17   And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
    • 18   And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
    • 19   And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
    • 20   And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
    • 21   For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
    • 22   And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
    • 23   Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
    • 24   And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
    • 25   (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
    • 26   For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
    • 27   But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
    • 28   And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
    • 29   And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
    • 30   Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
    • 31   And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
    • 32   And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.
    • 33   And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
    • 34   And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
    • 35   And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
    • 36   And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
    • 37   And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
    • 38   Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
    • 39   And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
    • 40   And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
    • 41   And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
    • 42   Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
    • 43   For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
    • 44   And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
    • 45   And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
    • 46   Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
    • 47   And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
    • 48   And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.

  • 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.
