    2 Samuel 22
    • 1   Forsothe Dauid spak to the Lord the wordis of this song, in the dai in which the Lord delyuerede hym fro the hond of alle hise enemyes, and fro the hond of Saul.
    • 2   And Dauid seide, The Lord is my stoon, and my strengthe, and my sauyour;
    • 3   my God, my stronge, I schal hope in to hym; my scheeld, and the horn of myn helthe, `my reisere, and my refuyt; my sauyour, thou schalt delyuere me fro wickidnesse.
    • 4   Y schal inwardly clepe the Lord worthi to be preisid; and Y schal be saaf fro myn enemyes.
    • 5   For the sorewis of deeth cumpasside me; the strondis of Belial maden me aferd.
    • 6   The coordis of helle cumpassiden me; the snaris of deeth camen bifor me.
    • 7   In tribulacioun Y schal clepe, `that is, Y clepide thee, Lord, and Y schal crie to my God; and he herd fro his holi temple my vois, and my crye schal come to hise eeris.
    • 8   The erthe was mouyd, and tremblide; the foundementis of hillis weren smytun and schakun togidere, for the Lord was wrooth to hem.
    • 9   Smoke stiede fro hise nosethirlis, and fier of his mouth schal deuoure; colis weren kyndlid of it.
    • 10   And he bowide heuenes, and cam doun; and myist vndur hise feet.
    • 11   And he stiede on cherubyn, and fliy; and he slood on the pennys of wynd.
    • 12   He puttide derknessis hidyng place in his cumpas, and riddlide watris fro the cloudis of heuenes;
    • 13   for briytnesse in his siyt colis of fier weren kyndelid.
    • 14   The Lord schal thundur fro heuene; and hiy God schal yyue his vois.
    • 15   He sente hise arowis, and scateride hem; he sente leitis, and wastide hem.
    • 16   And the schedyngis out of the see apperiden, and the foundementis of the world weren schewid; fro the blamyng of the Lord, fro the brething of the spirit of his strong veniaunce.
    • 17   He sente fro heuene, and took me; and drow me out of manye watris.
    • 18   He delyuerede me fro my myytiest enemy, and fro hem that hatiden me; for thei weren strongere than Y.
    • 19   Thei camen bifore me in the dai of my turmentyng; and the Lord was maad my stidfastnesse.
    • 20   And he ledde me out in to largenesse, and he delyuerede me; for Y pleside hym.
    • 21   The Lord schal yelde to me vp my riytfulnesse; and he schal yelde to me vp, `ethir aftir, the clennesse of myn hondis.
    • 22   For Y kepte the weies of the Lord; and Y dide not wickidli fro my God.
    • 23   For alle hise domes weren in my siyt; and Y dide not awei fro me hise heestis.
    • 24   And Y schal be perfit with hym; and Y schal kepe me fro my wickidnesse.
    • 25   And the Lord schal restore to me vpe my riytfulnesse; and vp the clennesse of myn hondis in the siyt of hise iyen.
    • 26   With the hooli thou schalt be hooli, and with the stronge, `that is, to suffre aduersitees pacientli, thou schalt be perfit;
    • 27   and with a chosun man `to blis thou schalt be chosun, and with a weiward man thou schalt be maad weiward, `that is, in yeldynge iustli peyne to hym vpe his weiwardnesse.
    • 28   And thou schalt make saaf a pore puple; and with thin iyen thou schalt make lowe hem that ben hiye.
    • 29   For thou, Lord, art my lanterne, and thou, Lord, schalt liytne my derknessis.
    • 30   For Y gird, `that is, maad redi to batel, schal renne in thee, `that is, in thi vertu; and in my God Y schal `scippe ouer the wal.
    • 31   `God his weie is `with out wem; the speche of the Lord is examynyd bi fier, `that is, is pure and clene as metal preuyd in the furneys; he is a scheeld of alle men hopynge in hym.
    • 32   For who is God, outakun the Lord; and who is strong, outakun oure God?
    • 33   God, that hath gird me with strengthe, and hath maad pleyn my perfit weie;
    • 34   and he made euene my feet with hertis, and settide me on myn hiye thingis;
    • 35   and he tauyte myn hondis to batel, and made myn armes as a brasun bouwe.
    • 36   Thou hast youe to me the sheeld of thin heelthe; and my myldenesse multipliede me.
    • 37   Thou schalt alarge my steppis vndur me; and myn heelis schulen not faile.
    • 38   Y schal pursue myn enemyes, and Y schal al to-breke hem; and Y schal not turne ayen, til Y waste hem.
    • 39   Y schal waste hem, and Y schal breke, that thei rise not; thei schulen falle vndur my feet.
    • 40   Thou hast gird me with strengthe to batel; thou hast bowid vnder me hem that ayenstoden me.
    • 41   Thou hast youe myn enemyes abac to me, men hatynge me; and Y schal distrie hem.
    • 42   Thei schulen crye, `that is, to ydols ether to mennus help, and noon schal be that schal saue; `thei schulen crie to the Lord, and he schal not here hem.
    • 43   Y schal do awei hem as the dust of erthe; Y schal `powne hem, and Y schal do awei as the clei of stretis.
    • 44   Thou schalt saue me fro ayenseiyngis of my puple; thou schalt kepe me in to the heed of folkis; the puple, whom Y knowe not, schal serue me.
    • 45   Alien sones schulen ayenstonde me; bi heryng of eere thei schulen obeie to me.
    • 46   Alien sones fletiden awei; and thei schulen be drawun togidere in her angwischis.
    • 47   The Lord lyueth, and my God is blessid; and the stronge God of myn helthe schal be enhaunsid.
    • 48   God, that yyuest veniauncis to me; and hast cast doun puplis vndur me.
    • 49   Which ledist me out fro myn enemyes, and reisist me fro men ayenstondinge me; thou schalt deliuere me fro the wickid man.
    • 50   Therfor, Lord, Y schal knowleche to thee in hethene men; and Y schal synge to thi name.
    • 51   And he magnyfieth the helthis of his kyng; and doith mercyes to his crist Dauid, and to his seed til in to withouten ende.

  • John Wycliffe Bible (c.1395) (wycliffe - 2.4.1)

    2020-08-01

    English (enm)

    The Holy Bible, containing the Old and New Testaments, with the Apocryphal books, in the earliest English versions made from the Latin Vulgate by John Wycliffe and his followers, c.1395

    Source text https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(Wycliffe)

    John Wycliffe organized the first complete translation of the Bible into Middle English in the 1380s.

    The translation from the Vulgate was a collaborative effort, and it is not clear which portions are actually Wycliffe's work.

    Church authorities officially condemned the translators of the Bible into vernacular languages and called these heretics Lollards.

    Despite their prohibition, revised versions of Wycliffite Bibles remained in use for about 100 years.

    Wikisource attributes its source as the Wesley Center Online.

    That in turn was derived from the Fedosov transcription on the Slavic Bibles site http://www.sbible.ru

    The source text makes no use of archaic letters that were part of Middle English orthography.
    The Latin letter Yogh [ȝ] was evidently replaced by the letter [y] in the Fedosov transcription.

    The text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.

    Verse numbers were not used in either the earlier or later version of the Wycliffe Bible in the fourteenth century. Each chapter consisted of one unbroken block of text. There were not even any paragraphs. Hence whatever verse numbers we now have in modern editions have been added retrospectively by comparison with other English Bibles and the Latin Vulgate.

    Two books found in the Vulgate, II Esdras and Psalm 151, were never part of the Wycliffe Bible.

    Module build notes:
    1. The Prayer of Manasseh has been separated from 2 Chronicles in order to avoid a critical versification issue.
    cf. In Wikisource it was assigned as 2 Paralipomenon chapter 37.
    2. The Letter of Jeremiah has been joined to Baruch as chapter 6 thereof.
    3. The book order of Wycliffe's Bible differs from that of the Vulg versification used in this module.
    4. There are now 313 notes in the Wikisource document.
    5. The Wikisource text substantially matches that of the nine books in module version 1.0
    6. Each of these five verses not in the Vulg versification was appended to the previous verse: Deut.27.27 Esth.5.15 Ps.38.15 Ps.147.10 Luke.10.43
    7. There are also several verses without any text. Use Sword utility emptyvss to list these.

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.
