    John 3
    • 1   There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
    • 2   The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
    • 3   Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
    • 4   Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?
    • 5   Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
    • 6   That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
    • 7   Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
    • 8   The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
    • 9   Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
    • 10   Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
    • 11   Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
    • 12   If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
    • 13   And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
    • 14   And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
    • 15   That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
    • 16   For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
    • 17   For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
    • 18   He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
    • 19   And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
    • 20   For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
    • 21   But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
    • 22   After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.
    • 23   And John also was baptizing in Ænon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
    • 24   For John was not yet cast into prison.
    • 25   Then there arose a question between some of John’s disciples and the Jews about purifying.
    • 26   And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
    • 27   John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.
    • 28   Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
    • 29   He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
    • 30   He must increase, but I must decrease.
    • 31   He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
    • 32   And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.
    • 33   He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
    • 34   For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.
    • 35   The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
    • 36   He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on 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.
