WORD Research this...Job 5
- 1 “Call now; is there any who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
- 2 For resentment kills the foolish man, and jealousy kills the simple.
- 3 I have seen the foolish taking root, but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
- 4 His children are far from safety. They are crushed in the gate. Neither is there any to deliver them,
- 5 whose harvest the hungry eats up, and take it even out of the thorns. The snare gapes for their substance.
- 6 For affliction doesn’t come out of the dust, neither does trouble spring out of the ground;
- 7 but man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
- 8 “But as for me, I would seek God. I would commit my cause to God,
- 9 who does great things that can’t be fathomed, marvelous things without number;
- 10 who gives rain on the earth, and sends waters on the fields;
- 11 so that he sets up on high those who are low, those who mourn are exalted to safety.
- 12 He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands can’t perform their enterprise.
- 13 He takes the wise in their own craftiness; the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong.
- 14 They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope at noonday as in the night.
- 15 But he saves from the sword of their mouth, even the needy from the hand of the mighty.
- 16 So the poor has hope, and injustice shuts her mouth.
- 17 “Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
- 18 For he wounds, and binds up. He injures, and his hands make whole.
- 19 He will deliver you in six troubles; yes, in seven no evil shall touch you.
- 20 In famine he will redeem you from death; in war, from the power of the sword.
- 21 You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, neither shall you be afraid of destruction when it comes.
- 22 At destruction and famine you shall laugh, neither shall you be afraid of the animals of the earth.
- 23 For you shall be allied with the stones of the field. The animals of the field shall be at peace with you.
- 24 You shall know that your tent is in peace. You shall visit your fold, and shall miss nothing.
- 25 You shall know also that your seed shall be great, Your offspring as the grass of the earth.
- 26 You shall come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.
- 27 Look this, we have searched it, so it is. Hear it, and know it for your good.”

However, to modify your notes and tags, you need both the persistent session key and your favourite verse.
Please Keep Your Favourite Verse Private
Your persistent session key and favourite verse provide you exclusive access to edit your notes and tags. Think of your persistent session key as a username and your favourite verse as a password. Therefore, ensure your favourite verse is kept private.

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.
