WORD Research this...Genesis 21
- 1 And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had spoken.
- 2 For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
- 3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
- 4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
- 5 And Abraham was a hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born to him.
- 6 And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, [so that] all that hear will laugh with me.
- 7 And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah shall nurse children? for I have borne him a son in his old age.
- 8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the day that Isaac was weaned.
- 9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
- 10 Wherefore, she said to Abraham, Cast out this bond-woman, and her son: for the son of this bond-woman shall not be heir with my son, [even] with Isaac.
- 11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight, because of his son.
- 12 And God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight, because of the lad, and because of thy bond-woman; in all that Sarah hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
- 13 And also of the son of the bond-woman will I make a nation, because he [is] thy seed.
- 14 And Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave [it] to Hagar (putting [it] on her shoulder) and the child, and sent her away; and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.
- 15 And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
- 16 And she went, and sat her down over against [him], a good way off, as it were a bow-shot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against [him], and raised her voice, and wept.
- 17 And God heard the voice of the lad: and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he [is].
- 18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thy hand: for I will make him a great nation.
- 19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water: and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
- 20 And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
- 21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took for him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
- 22 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, spoke to Abraham, saying, God [is] with thee in all that thou doest:
- 23 Now therefore swear to me here by God, that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son: [but] according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land in which thou hast sojourned.
- 24 And Abraham said, I will swear.
- 25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech, because of a well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
- 26 And Abimelech said, I know not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet have I heard [of it], but to-day.
- 27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a covenant.
- 28 And Abraham set seven ewe-lambs of the flock by themselves.
- 29 And Abimelech said to Abraham, What [mean] these seven ewe-lambs, which thou hast set by themselves?
- 30 And he said, For [these] seven ewe-lambs shalt thou take from my hand, that they may be a witness to me, that I have digged this well.
- 31 Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba: because there they swore both of them.
- 32 Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: Then Abimelech arose, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
- 33 And [Abraham] planted a grove in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the everlasting God.
- 34 And Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.

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.- Direction: LTR

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.
