    Baruch 3
    •   O Lord Almighty, God of Israel, the soul in anguish the troubled spirit, crieth unto thee.
    •   Hear, O Lord, and have mercy; art thou art merciful: and have pity upon us, because we have sinned before thee.
    •   For thou endurest for ever, and we perish utterly.
    •   O Lord Almighty, thou God of Israel, hear now the prayers of the dead Israelites, and of their children, which have sinned before thee, and not hearkened unto the voice of thee their God: for the which cause these plagues cleave unto us.
    •   Remember not the iniquities of our forefathers: but think upon thy power and thy name now at this time.
    •   For thou art the Lord our God, and thee, O Lord, will we praise.
    •   And for this cause thou hast put thy fear in our hearts, to the intent that we should call upon thy name, and praise thee in our captivity: for we have called to mind all the iniquity of our forefathers, that sinned before thee.
    •   Behold, we are yet this day in our captivity, where thou hast scattered us, for a reproach and a curse, and to be subject to payments, according to all the iniquities of our fathers, which departed from the Lord our God.
    •   Hear, Israel, the commandments of life: give ear to understand wisdom.
    • 10   How happeneth it Israel, that thou art in thine enemies’ land, that thou art waxen old in a strange country, that thou art defiled with the dead,
    • 11   That thou art counted with them that go down into the grave?
    • 12   Thou hast forsaken the fountain of wisdom.
    • 13   For if thou hadst walked in the way of God, thou shouldest have dwelled in peace for ever.
    • 14   Learn where is wisdom, where is strength, where is understanding; that thou mayest know also where is length of days, and life, where is the light of the eyes, and peace.
    • 15   Who hath found out her place? or who hath come into her treasures ?
    • 16   Where are the princes of the heathen become, and such as ruled the beasts upon the earth;
    • 17   They that had their pastime with the fowls of the air, and they that hoarded up silver and gold, wherein men trust, and made no end of their getting?
    • 18   For they that wrought in silver, and were so careful, and whose works are unsearchable,
    • 19   They are vanished and gone down to the grave, and others are come up in their steads.
    • 20   Young men have seen light, and dwelt upon the earth: but the way of knowledge have they not known,
    • 21   Nor understood the paths thereof, nor laid hold of it: their children were far off from that way.
    • 22   It hath not been heard of in Chanaan, neither hath it been seen in Theman.
    • 23   The Agarenes that seek wisdom upon earth, the merchants of Meran and of Theman, the authors of fables, and searchers out of understanding; none of these have known the way of wisdom, or remember her paths.
    • 24   O Israel, how great is the house of God! and how large is the place of his possession!
    • 25   Great, and hath none end; high, and unmeasurable.
    • 26   There were the giants famous from the beginning, that were of so great stature, and so expert in war.
    • 27   Those did not the Lord choose, neither gave he the way of knowledge unto them:
    • 28   But they were destroyed, because they had no wisdom, and perished through their own foolishness.
    • 29   Who hath gone up into heaven, and taken her, and brought her down from the clouds?
    • 30   Who hath gone over the sea, and found her, and will bring her for pure gold?
    • 31   No man knoweth her way, nor thinketh of her path.
    • 32   But he that knoweth all things knoweth her, and hath found her out with his understanding: he that prepared the earth for evermore hath filled it with fourfooted beasts:
    • 33   He that sendeth forth light, and it goeth, calleth it again, and it obeyeth him with fear.
    • 34   The stars shined in their watches, and rejoiced: when he calleth them, they say, Here we be; and so with cheerfulness they shewed light unto him that made them.
    • 35   This is our God, and there shall none other be accounted of in comparison of him
    • 36   He hath found out all the way of knowledge, and hath given it unto Jacob his servant, and to Israel his beloved.
    • 37   Afterward did he shew himself upon earth, and conversed with men.

  • King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology and CatchWords, including Apocrypha (without glosses) (kjva - 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.
