WORD Research this...Proverbs 23
-
1 When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, Thou considerest diligently that which
is before thee, -
2 And thou hast put a knife to thy throat, If thou
art a man of appetite. -
3 Have no desire to his dainties, seeing it
is lying food. - 4 Labour not to make wealth, From thine own understanding cease, Dost thou cause thine eyes to fly upon it? Then it is not.
- 5 For wealth maketh to itself wings, As an eagle it flieth to the heavens.
- 6 Eat not the bread of an evil eye, And have no desire to his dainties,
-
7 For as he hath thought in his soul, so
is he, `Eat and drink,' saith he to thee, And his heartis not with thee. -
8 Thy morsel thou hast eaten thou dost vomit up, And hast marred thy words that
are sweet. - 9 In the ears of a fool speak not, For he treadeth on the wisdom of thy words.
- 10 Remove not a border of olden times, And into fields of the fatherless enter not,
-
11 For their Redeemer
is strong, He doth plead their cause with thee. - 12 Bring in to instruction thy heart, And thine ear to sayings of knowledge.
- 13 Withhold not from a youth chastisement, When thou smitest him with a rod he dieth not.
- 14 Thou with a rod smitest him, And his soul from Sheol thou deliverest.
- 15 My son, if thy heart hath been wise, My heart rejoiceth, even mine,
- 16 And my reins exult when thy lips speak uprightly.
- 17 Let not thy heart be envious at sinners, But--in the fear of Jehovah all the day.
- 18 For, is there a posterity? Then thy hope is not cut off.
- 19 Hear thou, my son, and be wise, And make happy in the way thy heart,
- 20 Be not thou among quaffers of wine, Among gluttonous ones of flesh,
- 21 For the quaffer and glutton become poor, And drowsiness clotheth with rags.
- 22 Hearken to thy father, who begat thee, And despise not thy mother when she hath become old.
- 23 Truth buy, and sell not, Wisdom, and instruction, and understanding,
- 24 The father of the righteous rejoiceth greatly, The begetter of the wise rejoiceth in him.
- 25 Rejoice doth thy father and thy mother, Yea, she that bare thee is joyful.
- 26 Give, my son, thy heart to me, And let thine eyes watch my ways.
-
27 For a harlot
is a deep ditch, And a strange womanis a strait pit. - 28 She also, as catching prey, lieth in wait, And the treacherous among men she increaseth.
- 29 Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? Who hath contentions? who hath plaint? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eyes?
- 30 Those tarrying by the wine, Those going in to search out mixed wine.
- 31 See not wine when it showeth itself red, When it giveth in the cup its colour, It goeth up and down through the upright.
- 32 Its latter end--as a serpent it biteth, And as a basilisk it stingeth.
- 33 Thine eyes see strange women, And thy heart speaketh perverse things.
- 34 And thou hast been as one lying down in the heart of the sea, And as one lying down on the top of a mast.
- 35 `They smote me, I have not been sick, They beat me, I have not known. When I awake--I seek it yet again!'

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.
