WORD Research this...Sirach 27
- 1 Many have sinned for a small matter; and he that seeketh for abundance will turn his eyes away.
- 2 As a nail sticketh fast between the joinings of the stones; so doth sin stick close between buying and selling.
- 3 Unless a man hold himself diligently in the fear of the Lord, his house shall soon be overthrown.
- 4 As when one sifteth with a sieve, the refuse remaineth; so the filth of man in his talk.
- 5 The furnace proveth the potter’s vessels; so the trial of man is in his reasoning.
- 6 The fruit declareth if the tree have been dressed; so is the utterance of a conceit in the heart of man.
- 7 Praise no man before thou hearest him speak; for this is the trial of men.
- 8 If thou followest righteousness, thou shalt obtain her, and put her on, as a glorious long robe.
- 9 The birds will resort unto their like; so will truth return unto them that practise in her.
- 10 As the lion lieth in wait for the prey; so sin for them that work iniquity.
- 11 The discourse of a godly man is always with wisdom; but a fool changeth as the moon.
- 12 If thou be among the indiscreet, observe the time; but be continually among men of understanding.
- 13 The discourse of fools is irksome, and their sport is the wantonness of sin.
- 14 The talk of him that sweareth much maketh the hair stand upright; and their brawls make one stop his ears.
- 15 The strife of the proud is bloodshedding, and their revilings are grievous to the ear.
- 16 Whoso discovereth secrets loseth his credit; and shall never find friend to his mind.
- 17 Love thy friend, and be faithful unto him: but if thou betrayest his secrets, follow no more after him.
- 18 For as a man hath destroyed his enemy; so hast thou lost the love of thy neighbor.
- 19 As one that letteth a bird go out of his hand, so hast thou let thy neighbour go, and shalt not get him again
- 20 Follow after him no more, for he is too far off; he is as a roe escaped out of the snare.
- 21 As for a wound, it may be bound up; and after reviling there may be reconcilement: but he that betrayeth secrets is without hope.
- 22 He that winketh with the eyes worketh evil: and he that knoweth him will depart from him.
- 23 When thou art present, he will speak sweetly, and will admire thy words: but at the last he will writhe his mouth, and slander thy sayings.
- 24 I have hated many things, but nothing like him; for the Lord will hate him.
- 25 Whoso casteth a stone on high casteth it on his own head; and a deceitful stroke shall make wounds.
- 26 Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that setteth a trap shall be taken therein.
- 27 He that worketh mischief, it shall fall upon him, and he shall not know whence it cometh.
- 28 Mockery and reproach are from the proud; but vengeance, as a lion, shall lie in wait for them.
- 29 They that rejoice at the fall of the righteous shall be taken in the snare; and anguish shall consume them before they die.
- 30 Malice and wrath, even these are abominations; and the sinful man shall have them both.

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology and CatchWords, including Apocrypha (without glosses) (kjva - 3.1)
2023-07-19English (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.
