WORD Research this...Proverbs 7
- 1 My son, keep my words. Lay up my commandments within you.
- 2 Keep my commandments and live! Guard my teaching as the apple of your eye.
- 3 Bind them on your fingers. Write them on the tablet of your heart.
- 4 Tell wisdom, “You are my sister.” Call understanding your relative,
- 5 that they may keep you from the strange woman, from the foreigner who flatters with her words.
- 6 For at the window of my house, I looked out through my lattice.
- 7 I saw among the simple ones. I discerned among the youths a young man void of understanding,
- 8 passing through the street near her corner, he went the way to her house,
- 9 in the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the middle of the night and in the darkness.
- 10 Behold, there a woman met him with the attire of a prostitute, and with crafty intent.
- 11 She is loud and defiant. Her feet don’t stay in her house.
- 12 Now she is in the streets, now in the squares, and lurking at every corner.
- 13 So she caught him, and kissed him. With an impudent face she said to him:
- 14 “Sacrifices of peace offerings are with me. This day I have paid my vows.
- 15 Therefore I came out to meet you, to diligently seek your face, and I have found you.
- 16 I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.
- 17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
- 18 Come, let’s take our fill of loving until the morning. Let’s solace ourselves with loving.
- 19 For my husband isn’t at home. He has gone on a long journey.
- 20 He has taken a bag of money with him. He will come home at the full moon.”
- 21 With persuasive words, she led him astray. With the flattering of her lips, she seduced him.
- 22 He followed her immediately, as an ox goes to the slaughter, as a fool stepping into a noose.
- 23 Until an arrow strikes through his liver, as a bird hurries to the snare, and doesn’t know that it will cost his life.
- 24 Now therefore, sons, listen to me. Pay attention to the words of my mouth.
- 25 Don’t let your heart turn to her ways. Don’t go astray in her paths,
- 26 for she has thrown down many wounded. Yes, all her slain are a mighty army.
- 27 Her house is the way to Sheol, going down to the rooms of death.

How This All Works
Your persistent session key, together with your favourite verse, authenticates you. It links to all your notes and tags in the Bible. You can share it with loved ones so they can see your notes and tags.
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.
The persistent session key allows viewing, while editing is only possible when the correct favourite verse is provided.

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.
