WORD Research this...Sirach 3
- 1 Hear me your father, O children, and do thereafter, that ye may be safe.
- 2 For the Lord hath given the father honour over the children, and hath confirmed the authority of the mother over the sons.
- 3 Whoso honoureth his father maketh an atonement for his sins:
- 4 And he that honoureth his mother is as one that layeth up treasure.
- 5 Whoso honoureth his father shall have joy of his own children; and when he maketh his prayer, he shall be heard.
- 6 He that honoureth his father shall have a long life; and he that is obedient unto the Lord shall be a comfort to his mother.
- 7 He that feareth the Lord will honour his father, and will do service unto his parents, as to his masters.
- 8 Honour thy father and mother both in word and deed, that a blessing may come upon thee from them.
- 9 For the blessing of the father establisheth the houses of children; but the curse of the mother rooteth out foundations.
- 10 Glory not in the dishonour of thy father; for thy father’s dishonour is no glory unto thee.
- 11 For the glory of a man is from the honour of his father; and a mother in dishonour is a reproach to the children.
- 12 My son, help thy father in his age, and grieve him not as long as he liveth.
- 13 And if his understanding fail, have patience with him; and despise him not when thou art in thy full strength.
- 14 For the relieving of thy father shall not be forgotten: and instead of sins it shall be added to build thee up.
- 15 In the day of thine affliction it shall be remembered; thy sins also shall melt away, as the ice in the fair warm weather.
- 16 He that forsaketh his father is as a blasphemer; and he that angereth his mother is cursed: of God.
- 17 My son, go on with thy business in meekness; so shalt thou be beloved of him that is approved.
- 18 The greater thou art, the more humble thyself, and thou shalt find favour before the Lord.
- 19 Many are in high place, and of renown: but mysteries are revealed unto the meek.
- 20 For the power of the Lord is great, and he is honoured of the lowly.
- 21 Seek not out things that are too hard for thee, neither search the things that are above thy strength.
- 22 But what is commanded thee, think thereupon with reverence, for it is not needful for thee to see with thine eyes the things that are in secret.
- 23 Be not curious in unnecessary matters: for more things are shewed unto thee than men understand.
- 24 For many are deceived by their own vain opinion; and an evil suspicion hath overthrown their judgment.
- 25 Without eyes thou shalt want light: profess not the knowledge therefore that thou hast not.
- 26 A stubborn heart shall fare evil at the last; and he that loveth danger shall perish therein.
- 27 An obstinate heart shall be laden with sorrows; and the wicked man shall heap sin upon sin.
- 28 In the punishment of the proud there is no remedy; for the plant of wickedness hath taken root in him.
- 29 The heart of the prudent will understand a parable; and an attentive ear is the desire of a wise man.
- 30 Water will quench a flaming fire; and alms maketh an atonement for sins.
- 31 And he that requiteth good turns is mindful of that which may come hereafter; and when he falleth, he shall find a stay.

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.
