    Romans 3
    • 1   What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
    • 2   Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
    • 3   For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
    • 4   God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
    • 5   But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
    • 6   God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
    • 7   For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
    • 8   And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
    • 9   What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
    • 10   As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
    • 11   There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
    • 12   They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
    • 13   Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
    • 14   Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
    • 15   Their feet are swift to shed blood:
    • 16   Destruction and misery are in their ways:
    • 17   And the way of peace have they not known:
    • 18   There is no fear of God before their eyes.
    • 19   Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
    • 20   Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
    • 21   But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
    • 22   Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
    • 23   For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
    • 24   Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
    • 25   Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
    • 26   To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
    • 27   Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
    • 28   Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
    • 29   Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
    • 30   Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
    • 31   Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

  • 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.
