WORD Research this...Revelation 21
- 1 Kisha nikaona mbingu mpya na dunia mpya. Mbingu ile ya kwanza na dunia ile ya kwanza vilikuwa vimetoweka, nayo bahari pia haikuweko tena.
- 2 Nikaona mji mtakatifu, Yerusalemu mpya, ukishuka kutoka kwa Mungu mbinguni. Ulikuwa umetayarishwa vizuri kama bibi arusi aliyepambwa tayari kukutana na mumewe.
- 3 Kisha nikasikia sauti kubwa kutoka katika kiti cha enzi ikisema, "Tazama! Mungu amefanya makao yake kati ya watu. Atakaa kati yao, nao watakuwa watu wake, naye atakuwa Mungu wao.
- 4 Yeye atayafuta machozi yao yote; maana hakutakuwako tena na kifo, wala uchungu, wala kilio, wala maumivu; maana ile hali ya kale imepita!"
- 5 Kisha yule aliyeketi juu ya kiti cha enzi akasema, "Tazama, nafanya yote mapya." Tena akaniambia, "Andika hili, maana maneno haya ni ya kuaminika na ya kweli!"
- 6 Kisha akaniambia, "Yametimia! Mimi ni Alfa na Omega, Mwanzo na Mwisho. Aliye na kiu nitampa kinywaji cha bure kutoka katika chemchemi ya maji ya uzima.
- 7 Yeyote atakayeshinda atapokea hiki, nami nitakuwa Mungu wake, naye atakuwa mwanangu.
- 8 Lakini watu waoga, wasioamini, wapotovu, wauaji, wazinzi, wachawi, waabudu sanamu, na waongo wote, mahali pao patakuwa ndani ya lile ziwa linalowaka moto na kiberiti; hicho ndicho kifo cha pili."
- 9 Kisha mmoja wa wale malaika saba waliokuwa na yale mabakuli saba yaliyokuwa yamejaa mabaa saba ya mwisho, akaja na kuniambia, "Njoo! Mimi nitakuonyesha bibi arusi, mkewe Mwanakondoo!"
- 10 Basi, Roho akanikumba, naye malaika akanipeleka juu ya mlima mrefu sana. Akanionyesha mji mtakatifu, ukishuka kutoka kwa Mungu mbinguni,
- 11 uking'aa kwa utukufu wa Mungu. Mwangaza wake ulikuwa kama wa jiwe la thamani kubwa kama yaspi, angavu kama kioo.
- 12 Ulikuwa na ukuta mrefu na mkubwa, wenye milango kumi na miwili, na malaika wanangojea kumi na wawili. Majina ya wangoja milango kumi na mawili ya Israeli yalikuwa yameandikwa juu ya milango hiyo.
- 13 Kila upande ulikuwa na milango mitatu: upande wa mashariki, milango mitatu, kaskazini milango mitatu, kusini milango mitatu na magharibi milango mitatu.
- 14 Kuta za mji huo zilikuwa zimejengwa juu ya mawe ya msingi kumi na mawili, na juu ya mawe hayo yalikuwa yameandikwa majina na mitume kumi na wawili wa Mwanakondoo.
- 15 Basi, yule malaika aliyekuwa anasema nami alikuwa na kijiti cha dhahabu cha kupimia, kwa ajili ya kuupima huo mji, milango yake na kuta zake.
- 16 Mji wenyewe ulikuwa wa mraba, upana na urefu wake sawa. Basi, malaika akaupima mji huo kwa kijiti chake: ulikuwa na urefu, upana na urefu wa kwenda juu, kama kilomita elfu mbili na mia nne.
- 17 Kisha akaupima ukuta wake pia; nao ulikuwa mita sitini kwa kipimo cha macho cha kibinadamu ambacho malaika alitumia.
- 18 Ukuta huo ulikuwa umejengwa kwa mawe mekundu ya thamani, na mji wenyewe ulikuwa umejengwa kwa dhahabu safi, angavu kama kioo.
- 19 Mawe ya msingi wa ukuta huo yalikuwa yamepambwa kwa kila aina ya mawe ya thamani. Jiwe la kwanza la msingi lilikuwa jiwe la thamani jekundu, la pili yakuti samawati, la tatu kalkedoni, la nne zamaradi,
- 20 la tano sardoniki, la sita akiki, la saba krisolito, la nane zabarijadi, la tisa topazi, la kumi krisopraso, la kumi na moja yasinto, na la kumi na mbili amethisto.
- 21 Na ile milango kumi na miwili ilikuwa lulu kumi na mbili; kila mlango ulikuwa umetengenezwa kwa lulu moja. Barabara kuu ya mji ilikuwa imetengenezwa kwa dhahabu safi, angavu kama kioo.
- 22 Sikuona hekalu katika mji huo, maana Bwana Mungu Mwenye Uwezo na yule Mwanakondoo ndio Hekalu lake.
- 23 Mji huo hauhitaji jua wala mwezi kuangazia, maana utukufu wa Mungu huuangazia, na taa yake ni yule Mwanakondoo.
- 24 Watu wa mataifa watatembea katika mwanga wake, na wafalme wa dunia watauletea utajiri wao.
- 25 Milango ya mji huo itakuwa wazi mchana wote; maana hakutakuwa na usiku humo.
- 26 Fahari na utajiri wa watu wa mataifa utaletwa humo ndani.
- 27 Lakini hakuna chochote kilicho najisi kitakachoingia humo; wala mtu yeyote atendaye mambo ya kuchukiza au ya uongo hataingia humo. Ni wale tu walioandikwa katika kitabu cha uzima cha Mwanakondoo ndio watakaoingia ndani.

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.
