    Acts 13
    • 1   Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
    • 2   As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, Separate for me Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them.
    • 3   And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid [their] hands on them, they sent [them] away.
    • 4   So they being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, departed to Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
    • 5   And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had also John for [their] minister.
    • 6   And when they had gone through the isle to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name [was] Barjesus:
    • 7   Who was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
    • 8   But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
    • 9   Then Saul (who also [is called] Paul) filled with the Holy Spirit, set his eyes on him,
    • 10   And said, O full of all subtilty, and all mischief, [thou] child of the devil, [thou] enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
    • 11   And now behold, the hand of the Lord [is] upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
    • 12   Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
    • 13   Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.
    • 14   But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath, and sat down.
    • 15   And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, speak.
    • 16   Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with [his] hand, said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
    • 17   The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm he brought them out of it.
    • 18   And about the time of forty years he suffered their manners in the wilderness.
    • 19   And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
    • 20   And after that he gave [to them] judges, about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
    • 21   And afterward they desired a king: and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.
    • 22   And when he had removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king: to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who shall fulfill all my will.
    • 23   Of this man's offspring hath God, according to [his] promise, raised up to Israel a Savior, Jesus:
    • 24   John having first preached, before his coming, the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
    • 25   And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not [he]. But behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of [his] feet I am not worthy to loose.
    • 26   Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
    • 27   For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the words of the prophets which are read every sabbath, they have fulfilled [them] in condemning [him].
    • 28   And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet they desired Pilate that he should be put to death.
    • 29   And when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning him, they took [him] down from the tree, and laid [him] in a sepulcher.
    • 30   But God raised him from the dead:
    • 31   And he was seen many days by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
    • 32   And we declare to you the glad tidings, that the promise which was made to the fathers,
    • 33   God hath fulfilled the same to us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
    • 34   And as concerning that he raised him from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
    • 35   Wherefore he saith also in another [psalm], Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.
    • 36   For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, and was laid to his fathers, and saw corruption:
    • 37   But he whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
    • 38   Be it known to you therefore, men, brethren, that through this man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins;
    • 39   And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
    • 40   Beware therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets;
    • 41   Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye will in no wise believe, though a man declare it to you.
    • 42   And when the Jews had gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
    • 43   Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
    • 44   And the next sabbath came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
    • 45   But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were uttered by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
    • 46   Then Paul and Barnabas became bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: but seeing ye reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
    • 47   For so hath the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldst be for salvation to the ends of the earth.
    • 48   And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life, believed.
    • 49   And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
    • 50   But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.
    • 51   But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
    • 52   And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.

    Webster Bible Electronic Format.
    PUBLIC DOMAIN

    February 1992

    Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

    I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

    I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.

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.
