WORD Research this...Judges 8
-
1 And the men of Ephraim say unto him, `What
is this thing thou hast done to us--not to call for us when thou didst go to fight with Midian?' and they strive with him severely; - 2 and he saith unto them, `What have I done now like you? are not the gleanings of Ephraim better than the harvest of Abi-Ezer?
- 3 Into your hand hath God given the heads of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and what have I been able to do like you?' Then their temper desisted from off him in his speaking this thing.
-
4 And Gideon cometh in unto the Jordan, passing over, he and the three hundred men who
are with him--wearied, and pursuing, -
5 and he saith to the men of Succoth, `Give, I pray you, cakes of bread to the people who
are at my feet, for theyare wearied, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna kings of Midian.' - 6 And the heads of Succoth say, `Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand, that we give to thy host bread?'
- 7 And Gideon saith, `Therefore--in Jehovah's giving Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand--I have threshed your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness, and with the threshing instruments.'
-
8 And he goeth up thence
to Penuel, and speaketh unto them thus; and the men of Penuel answer him as the men of Succoth answered. - 9 And he speaketh also to the men of Penuel, saying, `In my turning back in peace, I break down this tower.'
-
10 And Zebah and Zalmunna
are in Karkor, and their camps with them, about fifteen thousand, all who are left of all the camp of the sons of the east; and those fallingare a hundred and twenty thousand men, drawing sword. - 11 And Gideon goeth up the way of those who tabernacle in tents, on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and smiteth the camp, and the camp was confident;
- 12 and Zebab and Zalmunna flee, and he pursueth after them, and captureth the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and all the camp he hath caused to tremble.
- 13 And Gideon son of Joash turneth back from the battle, at the going up of the sun,
- 14 and captureth a young man of the men of Succoth, and asketh him, and he describeth unto him the heads of Succoth, and its elders--seventy and seven men.
-
15 And he cometh in unto the men of Succoth, and saith, `Lo Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye reproached me, saying, Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand that we give to thy men who
are wearied bread?' - 16 And he taketh the elders of the city, and the thorns of the wilderness, and the threshing instruments, and teacheth by them the men of Succoth,
- 17 and the tower of Penuel he hath broken down, and slayeth the men of the city.
- 18 And he saith unto Zebah and unto Zalmunna, `How--the men whom ye slew in Tabor?' and they say, `As thou--so they, one--as the form of the king's sons.'
- 19 And he saith, `My brethren--sons of my mother--they; Jehovah liveth, if ye had kept them alive--I had not slain you.'
-
20 And he saith to Jether his first-born, `Rise, slay them;' and the young man hath not drawn his sword, for he hath been afraid, for he
is yet a youth. -
21 And Zebah saith--also Zalmunna--`Rise thou, and fall upon us; for as the man--his might;' and Gideon riseth, and slayeth Zebah and Zalmunna, and taketh their round ornaments which
are on the necks of their camels. - 22 And the men of Israel say unto Gideon, `Rule over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, for thou hast saved us from the hand of Midian.'
- 23 And Gideon saith unto them, `I do not rule over you, nor doth my son rule over you; Jehovah doth rule over you.'
-
24 And Gideon saith unto them, `Let me ask of you a petition, and give ye to me each the ring of his prey, for they have rings of gold, for they
are Ishmaelites.' - 25 And they say, `We certainly give;' and they spread out the garment, and cast thither each the ring of his prey;
-
26 and the weight of the rings of gold which he asked is a thousand and seven hundred
shekels of gold, apart from the round ornaments, and the drops, and the purple garments, whichare on the kings of Midian, and apart from the chains whichare on the necks of their camels, - 27 and Gideon maketh it into an ephod, and setteth it up in his city, in Ophrah, and all Israel go a-whoring after it there, and it is to Gideon and to his house for a snare.
- 28 And Midian is humbled before the sons of Israel, and have not added to lift up their head; and the land resteth forty years in the days of Gideon.
- 29 And Jerubbaal son of Joash goeth and dwelleth in his own house,
- 30 and to Gideon there have been seventy sons, coming out of his loin, for he had many wives;
-
31 and his concubine, who
is in Shechem, hath born to him--even she--a son, and he appointeth his name Abimelech. - 32 And Gideon son of Joash dieth, in a good old age, and is buried in the burying-place of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abi-Ezrite.
-
33 And it cometh to pass, when Gideon
is dead, that the sons of Israel turn back and go a-whoring after the Baalim, and set over them Baal-Berith for a god; - 34 and the sons of Israel have not remembered Jehovah their God, who is delivering them out of the hand of all their enemies round about,
- 35 neither have they done kindness with the house of Jerubbaal--Gideon--according to all the good which he did with Israel.

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.
