    Luke 18
    • 1   Basi, Yesu aliwasimulia mfano kuonyesha kwamba ni lazima kusali daima bila kukata tamaa.
    • 2   Alisema: "Katika mji mmoja kulikuwa na hakimu ambaye hakuwa anamcha Mungu wala kumjali binadamu.
    • 3   Katika mji huohuo, kulikuwa pia na mama mmoja mjane, ambaye alimwendea huyo hakimu mara nyingi akimwomba amtetee apate haki yake kutoka kwa adui yake.
    • 4   Kwa muda mrefu huyo hakimu hakupenda kumtetea huyo mjane; lakini, mwishowe akajisemea: Ingawa mimi simchi Mungu wala simjali binadamu,
    • 5   lakini kwa vile huyu mjane ananisumbua, nitamtetea; la sivyo ataendelea kufika hapa, na mwisho atanichosha kabisa!"
    • 6   Basi, Bwana akaendelea kusema, "Sikieni jinsi alivyosema huyo hakimu mbaya.
    • 7   Je, ndio kusema Mungu hatawatetea wale aliowachagua, ambao wanamlilia mchana na usiku? Je, atakawia kuwasikiliza?
    • 8   Nawaambieni atawatetea upesi. Hata hivyo, je, kutakuwako na imani duniani wakati Mwana wa Mtu atakapokuja?"
    • 9   Halafu Yesu aliwaambia pia mfano wa wale ambao walijiona kuwa wema na kuwadharau wengine.
    • 10   "Watu wawili walipanda kwenda Hekaluni kusali: mmoja Mfarisayo, na mwingine mtoza ushuru.
    • 11   Huyo Mfarisayo akasimama, akasali kimoyomoyo: Ee Mungu, nakushukuru kwa vile mimi si kama watu wengine: walafi, wadanganyifu au wazinzi. Nakushukuru kwamba mimi si kama huyu mtoza ushuru.
    • 12   Nafunga mara mbili kwa juma, natoa zaka sehemu ya kumi ya pato langu.
    • 13   Lakini yule mtoza ushuru, akiwa amesimama kwa mbali bila hata kuinua macho yake mbinguni, ila tu akijipiga kifua kwa huzuni, alisema: Ee Mungu, unionee huruma mimi mwenye dhambi.
    • 14   Nawaambieni, huyu mtoza ushuru alirudi nyumbani akiwa amesamehewa. Lakini yule mwingine, sivyo. Kwa maana kila anayejikweza atashushwa, na kila anayejishusha atakwezwa."
    • 15   Watu walimletea Yesu watoto wadogo ili awawekee mikono yake. Wanafunzi walipowaona, wakawazuia kwa maneno makali.
    • 16   Lakini Yesu akawaita kwake akisema: "Waacheni hao watoto waje kwangu, wala msiwazuie, kwa maana Ufalme wa Mungu ni kwa ajili ya watu kama hawa.
    • 17   Nawaambieni kweli, mtu yeyote asiyeupokea Ufalme wa Mungu kama mtoto mdogo, hataingia katika Ufalme huo."
    • 18   Kiongozi mmoja, Myahudi, alimwuliza Yesu, "Mwalimu mwema, nifanye nini ili niweze kuupata uzima wa milele?"
    • 19   Yesu akamwambia, "Mbona waniita mwema? Hakuna aliye mwema ila Mungu peke yake.
    • 20   Unazijua amri: Usizini; usiue; usiibe; usitoe ushahidi wa uongo; waheshimu baba yako na mama yako."
    • 21   Yeye akasema, "Hayo yote nimeyazingatia tangu ujana wangu."
    • 22   Yesu aliposikia hayo akamwambia, "Unatakiwa bado kufanya kitu kimoja: uza kila ulicho nacho, wagawie maskini, na hivyo utakuwa na hazina yako mbinguni; halafu njoo unifuate."
    • 23   Lakini huyo mtu aliposikia hayo, alihuzunika sana kwa sababu alikuwa tajiri sana.
    • 24   Yesu alipoona akihuzunika hivyo, akasema, "Jinsi gani ilivyo vigumu kwa matajiri kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu!
    • 25   Naam, ni rahisi zaidi kwa ngamia kupita katika tundu la sindano, kuliko tajiri kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu."
    • 26   Wale watu waliposikia hayo, wakasema, "Nani basi, atakayeokolewa?"
    • 27   Yesu akajibu, "Yasiyowezekana kwa binadamu, yanawezekana kwa Mungu."
    • 28   Naye Petro akamwuliza, "Na sisi je? Tumeacha vitu vyote tukakufuata!"
    • 29   Yesu akawaambia, "Kweli nawaambieni, mtu yeyote aliyeacha nyumba au mke au kaka au wazazi au watoto kwa ajili ya Ufalme wa Mungu,
    • 30   atapokea mengi zaidi wakati huu wa sasa, na kupokea uzima wa milele wakati ujao."
    • 31   Yesu aliwachukua kando wale kumi na wawili, akawaambia, "Sikilizeni! Tunakwenda Yerusalemu na huko kila kitu kilichoandikwa na manabii kuhusu Mwana wa Mtu kitakamilishwa.
    • 32   Kwa maana atakabidhiwa kwa watu wa mataifa nao watamtendea vibaya na kumtemea mate.
    • 33   Watampiga mijeledi, watamuua; lakini siku ya tatu atafufuka."
    • 34   Lakini wao hawakuelewa hata kidogo jambo hilo; walikuwa wamefichwa maana ya maneno hayo, na hawakutambua yaliyosemwa.
    • 35   Wakati Yesu alipokaribia Yeriko, kulikuwa na mtu mmoja kipofu ameketi njiani akiomba.
    • 36   Aliposikia umati wa watu ukipita aliuliza, "Kuna nini?"
    • 37   Wakamwambia, "Yesu wa Nazareti anapita."
    • 38   Naye akapaza sauti akisema, "Yesu, Mwana wa Daudi, nihurumie!"
    • 39   Wale watu waliotangulia wakamkemea wakimwambia anyamaze; lakini yeye akazidi kupaza sauti: "Mwana wa Daudi, nihurumie;"
    • 40   Yesu alisimama, akaamuru wamlete mbele yake. Yule kipofu alipofika karibu, Yesu akamwuliza,
    • 41   "Unataka nikufanyie nini?" Naye akamjibu, "Bwana, naomba nipate kuona tena."
    • 42   Yesu akamwambia, "Ona! Imani yako imekuponya."
    • 43   Na mara yule aliyekuwa kipofu akapata kuona, akamfuata Yesu akimtukuza Mungu. Watu wote walipoona hayo, wakamsifu Mungu.

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.
