WORD Research this...Ecclesiastes 7
-
1 Better
is a name than good perfume, And the day of death than the day of birth. -
2 Better to go unto a house of mourning, Than to go unto a house of banqueting, For that is the end of all men, And the living layeth
it unto his heart. -
3 Better
is sorrow than laughter, For by the sadness of the face the heart becometh better. -
4 The heart of the wise
is in a house of mourning, And the heart of fools in a house of mirth. -
5 Better to hear a rebuke of a wise man, Than
for a man to hear a song of fools, -
6 For as the noise of thorns under the pot, So
is the laughter of a fool, even thisis vanity. - 7 Surely oppression maketh the wise mad, And a gift destroyeth the heart.
-
8 Better
is the latter end of a thing than its beginning, Betteris the patient of spirit, than the haughty of spirit. - 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry, For anger in the bosom of fools resteth.
- 10 Say not thou, `What was it, That the former days were better than these?' For thou hast not asked wisely of this.
-
11 Wisdom
is good with an inheritance, And an advantageit is -
12 For wisdom
is a defense, moneyis a defence, And the advantage of the knowledge of wisdomis , She reviveth her possessors. - 13 See the work of God, For who is able to make straight that which He made crooked?
- 14 In a day of prosperity be in gladness, And in a day of evil consider. Also this over-against that hath God made, To the intent that man doth not find anything after him.
-
15 The whole I have considered in the days of my vanity. There is a righteous one perishing in his righteousness, and there is a wrong-doer prolonging
himself in his wrong. - 16 Be not over-righteous, nor show thyself too wise, why art thou desolate?
- 17 Do not much wrong, neither be thou a fool, why dost thou die within thy time?
-
18
- 19 The wisdom giveth strength to a wise man, more than wealth the rulers who have been in a city.
- 20 Because there is not a righteous man on earth that doth good and sinneth not.
- 21 Also to all the words that they speak give not thy heart, that thou hear not thy servant reviling thee.
- 22 For many times also hath thy heart known that thou thyself also hast reviled others.
-
23 All this I have tried by wisdom; I have said, `I am wise,' and it
is far from me. -
24 Far off
is that which hath been, and deep, deep, who doth find it? - 25 I have turned round, also my heart, to know and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and reason, and to know the wrong of folly, and of foolishness the madness.
-
26 And I am finding more bitter than death, the woman whose heart
is nets and snares, her handsare bands; the good before God escapeth from her, but the sinner is captured by her. - 27 See, this I have found, said the Preacher, one to one, to find out the reason
- 28 (that still my soul had sought, and I had not found), One man, a teacher, I have found, and a woman among all these I have not found.
- 29 See, this alone I have found, that God made man upright, and they--they have sought out many devices.

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.
