WORD Research this...Job 22
- 1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,
- 2 “Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.
- 3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that you are righteous? Or does it benefit him, that you make your ways perfect?
- 4 Is it for your piety that he reproves you, that he enters with you into judgment?
- 5 Isn’t your wickedness great? Neither is there any end to your iniquities.
- 6 For you have taken pledges from your brother for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
- 7 You haven’t given water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.
- 8 But as for the mighty man, he had the earth. The honorable man, he lived in it.
- 9 You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
- 10 Therefore snares are around you. Sudden fear troubles you,
- 11 or darkness, so that you can not see, and floods of waters cover you.
- 12 “Isn’t God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!
- 13 You say, ‘What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?
- 14 Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he doesn’t see. He walks on the vault of the sky.’
- 15 Will you keep the old way, which wicked men have trodden,
- 16 who were snatched away before their time, whose foundation was poured out as a stream,
- 17 who said to God, ‘Depart from us;’ and, ‘What can the Almighty do for us?’
- 18 Yet he filled their houses with good things, but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
- 19 The righteous see it, and are glad. The innocent ridicule them,
- 20 saying, ‘Surely those who rose up against us are cut off. The fire has consumed their remnant.’
- 21 “Acquaint yourself with him, now, and be at peace. Thereby good shall come to you.
- 22 Please receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.
- 23 If you return to the Almighty, you shall be built up, if you put away unrighteousness far from your tents.
- 24 Lay your treasure in the dust, the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.
- 25 The Almighty will be your treasure, and precious silver to you.
- 26 For then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and shall lift up your face to God.
- 27 You shall make your prayer to him, and he will hear you. You shall pay your vows.
- 28 You shall also decree a thing, and it shall be established to you. Light shall shine on your ways.
- 29 When they cast down, you shall say, ‘be lifted up.’ He will save the humble person.
- 30 He will even deliver him who is not innocent. Yes, he shall be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.”

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.
