WORD Research this...Job 31
- 1 I made couenaunt with myn iyen, that Y schulde not thenke of a virgyn.
- 2 For what part schulde God aboue haue in me, and eritage Almyyti God of hiye thingis?
- 3 Whether perdicioun is not to a wickid man, and alienacioun of God is to men worchynge wickidnesse?
- 4 Whether he biholdith not my weies, and noumbrith alle my goyngis?
- 5 If Y yede in vanyte, and my foot hastide in gile,
- 6 God weie me in a iust balaunce, and knowe my symplenesse.
- 7 If my step bowide fro the weie; if myn iye suede myn herte, and a spotte cleuede to myn hondis;
- 8 sowe Y, and another ete, and my generacioun be drawun out bi the root.
- 9 If myn herte was disseyued on a womman, and if Y settide aspies at the dore of my frend; my wijf be the hoore of anothir man,
- 10 and othir men be bowid doun on hir.
- 11 For this is vnleueful, and the moost wickidnesse.
- 12 Fier is deourynge `til to wastyng, and drawynge vp bi the roote alle generaciouns.
- 13 If Y dispiside to take doom with my seruaunt and myn hand mayde, whanne thei stryueden ayens me.
- 14 What sotheli schal Y do, whanne God schal rise to deme? and whanne he schal axe, what schal Y answere to hym?
- 15 Whether he, that wrouyte also hym, made not me in the wombe, and o God formede me in the wombe?
- 16 If Y denyede to pore men that, that thei wolden, and if Y made the iyen of a wydewe to abide;
- 17 if Y aloone eet my mussel, and a faderles child eet not therof;
- 18 for merciful doyng encreesside with me fro my yong childhed, and yede out of my modris wombe with me;
- 19 if Y dispiside a man passynge forth, for he hadde not a cloth, and a pore man with out hilyng;
- 20 if hise sidis blessiden not me, and was not maad hoot of the fleeces of my scheep;
- 21 if Y reiside myn hond on a fadirles child, yhe, whanne Y siy me the hiyere in the yate;
- 22 my schuldre falle fro his ioynt, and myn arm with hise boonys be al to-brokun.
- 23 For euere Y dredde God, as wawis wexynge gret on me; and `Y myyte not bere his birthun.
- 24 If Y gesside gold my strengthe, and if Y seide to purid gold, Thou art my trist;
- 25 if Y was glad on my many ritchessis, and for myn hond foond ful many thingis;

- 27 and if myn herte was glad in priuyte, and if Y kisside myn hond with my mouth;
- 28 which is the moost wickidnesse, and deniyng ayens hiyeste God;
- 29 if Y hadde ioye at the fallyng of hym, that hatide me, and if Y ioide fulli, that yuel hadde founde hym;
- 30 for Y yaf not my throte to do synne, that Y schulde asaile and curse his soule;
- 31 if the men of my tabernacle seiden not, Who yyueth, that we be fillid of hise fleischis? a pilgryme dwellide not with outforth;
- 32 my dore was opyn to a weiegoere;
- 33 if Y as man hidde my synne, and helide my wickidnesse in my bosum;
- 34 if Y dredde at ful greet multitude, and if dispisyng of neyyboris made me aferd; and not more Y was stille, and yede not out of the dore;
- 35 who yyueth an helpere to me, that Almyyti God here my desire? that he that demeth,
- 36 write a book, that Y bere it in my schuldre, and cumpasse it as a coroun to me?
- 37 Bi alle my degrees Y schal pronounce it, and Y schal as offre it to the prynce.
- 38 If my lond crieth ayens me, and hise forewis wepen with it;

John Wycliffe Bible (c.1395) (wycliffe - 2.4.1)
2020-08-01English (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.- Encoding: UTF-8

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.
