WORD Research this...Proverbs 21
- 1 The king's heart [is] in the hand of the LORD, [as] the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
- 2 Every way of a man [is] right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.
- 3 To do justice and judgment [is] more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.
- 4 A high look, and a proud heart, [and] the plowing of the wicked, [is] sin.
- 5 The thoughts of the diligent [tend] only to plenteousness; but of every one [that is] hasty only to want.
- 6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue [is] a vanity tossed to and fro by them that seek death.
- 7 The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
- 8 The way of man [is] froward and strange: but [as for] the pure, his work [is] right.
- 9 [It is] better to dwell in a corner of the house-top, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
- 10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbor findeth no favor in his eyes.
- 11 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.
- 12 The righteous [man] wisely considereth the house of the wicked: [but God] overthroweth the wicked for [their] wickedness.
- 13 Whoever stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.
- 14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom, strong wrath.
- 15 [It is] joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction [shall be] to the workers of iniquity.
- 16 The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.
- 17 He that loveth pleasure [shall be] a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.
- 18 The wicked [shall be] a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.
- 19 [It is] better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
- 20 [There is] a treasure to be desired, and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.
- 21 He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honor.
- 22 A wise [man] scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of its confidence.
- 23 Whoever keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.
- 24 Proud [and] haughty scorner [is] his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
- 25 The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labor.
- 26 He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.
- 27 The sacrifice of the wicked [is] abomination: how much more, [when] he bringeth it with a wicked mind?
- 28 A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.
- 29 A wicked man hardeneth his face: but [as for] the upright, he directeth his way.
- 30 [There is] no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
- 31 The horse [is] prepared against the day of battle: but safety [is] from the LORD.

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.
