    Luke 7
    • 1   Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
    • 2   And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and ready to die.
    • 3   And when he heard of Jesus, he sent to him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
    • 4   And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
    • 5   For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
    • 6   Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof;
    • 7   Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come to thee; but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
    • 8   For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say to one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth [it].
    • 9   When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned himself about and said to the people that followed him, I say to you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
    • 10   And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well that had been sick.
    • 11   And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain: and many of his disciples went with him, and many people.
    • 12   Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people of the city were with her.
    • 13   And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, Weep not.
    • 14   And he came and touched the bier: And they that bore [him] stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to thee, Arise.
    • 15   And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak, and he delivered him to his mother.
    • 16   And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet hath risen among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
    • 17   And this rumor of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the neighboring region.
    • 18   And the disciples of John informed him of all these things.
    • 19   And John calling two of his disciples sent [them] to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
    • 20   When the men had come to him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
    • 21   And in that same hour he cured many of [their] infirmities, and diseases, and of evil spirits; and to many [that were] blind he gave sight.
    • 22   Then Jesus answering, said to them, Go, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; that the blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
    • 23   And blessed is [he], to whom I shall not be a stumbling block.
    • 24   And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to speak to the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
    • 25   But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they who are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
    • 26   But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
    • 27   This is [he], concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
    • 28   For I say to you, Among those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.
    • 29   And all the people that heard [him], and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
    • 30   But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.
    • 31   And the Lord said, To what then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
    • 32   They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
    • 33   For John the Baptist came neither eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
    • 34   The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners.
    • 35   But wisdom is justified by all her children.
    • 36   And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down at table.
    • 37   And behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, when she knew that [Jesus] sat at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster-box of ointment,
    • 38   And stood at his feet behind [him] weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed [them] with the ointment.
    • 39   Now when the Pharisee who had invited him, saw [it], he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who, and what manner of woman [this is] that toucheth him, for she is a sinner.
    • 40   And Jesus answering, said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Master, speak.
    • 41   There was a certain creditor, who had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
    • 42   And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
    • 43   Simon answered and said, I suppose that [he], to whom he forgave most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.
    • 44   And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her head.
    • 45   Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
    • 46   My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
    • 47   Wherefore I say to thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loveth little.
    • 48   And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.
    • 49   And they that sat at table with him, began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
    • 50   And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

    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.
