WORD Research this...Job 31
- 1 I Made a covenant with my eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
- 2 For what portion of God [is there] from above? and [what] inheritance of the Almighty from on high?
- 3 [Is] not destruction to the wicked? and a strange [punishment] to the workers of iniquity?
- 4 Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
- 5 If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot hath hasted to deceit;
- 6 Let me be weighed in an even balance, that God may know my integrity.
- 7 If my step hath turned out of the way, and my heart walked after my eyes, and if any blot hath cleaved to my hands;
- 8 [Then] let me sow, and let another eat; yes, let my offspring be rooted out.
- 9 If my heart hath been deceived by a woman, or [if] I have laid wait at my neighbor's door;
- 10 [Then] let my wife grind to another, and let others bow down upon her.
- 11 For this [is] a hainous crime; yea, it [is] an iniquity [to be punished by] the judges.
- 12 For it [is] a fire [that] consumeth to destruction, and would root out all my increase.
- 13 If I despised the cause of my man-servant or of my maid-servant, when they contended with me;
- 14 What then shall I do when God riseth up? and when he visiteth, what shall I answer him?
- 15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?
- 16 If I have withheld the poor from [their] desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;
- 17 Or have eaten my morsel myself alone, and the fatherless hath not eaten of it;
- 18 (For from my youth he was brought up with me, as [with] a father, and I have guided her from my mother's womb;)
- 19 If I have seen any perish for want of clothing, or any poor without covering;
- 20 If his loins have not blessed me, and [if] he hath not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep;
- 21 If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, when I saw my help in the gate:
- 22 [Then] let my arm fall from my shoulder-blade, and my arm be broken from the bone.
- 23 For destruction [from] God [was] a terror to me, and by reason of his highness I could not endure.
- 24 If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, [Thou art] my confidence;
- 25 If I have rejoiced because my wealth [was] great, and because my hand had gained much;
- 26 If I have beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking [in] brightness;
- 27 And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand:
- 28 This also [were] an iniquity [to be punished by] the judge: for I should have denied the God [that is] above.
- 29 If I have rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or have lifted up myself when evil found him:
- 30 Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul.
- 31 If the men of my tabernacle have not said, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.
- 32 The stranger did not lodge in the street: [but] I opened my doors to the traveler.
- 33 If I have covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding my iniquity in my bosom:
- 34 Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, [and] went not out of the door?
- 35 Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire [is], [that] the Almighty would answer me, and [that] my adversary had written a book.
- 36 Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, [and] bind it [as] a crown to me.
- 37 I would declare to him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near to him.
- 38 If my land crieth against me, or its furrows likewise complain;
- 39 If I have eaten the fruits of it without money, or have caused its owners to lose their life:
- 40 Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley. The words of Job are ended.

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.
