Job 16
- 1 Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide, Y `herde ofte siche thingis;
- 2 alle ye ben heuy coumfortouris.
- 3 Whether wordis ful of wynd schulen haue an ende? ether ony thing is diseseful to thee, if thou spekist?
- 4 Also Y myyte speke thingis lijk to you, and `Y wolde, that youre soule were for my soule;
- 5 and Y wolde coumfort you by wordis, and Y wolde moue myn heed on you;
- 6 Y wolde make you stronge bi my mouth, and Y wolde moue lippis as sparynge you.
- 7 But what schal Y do? If Y speke, my sorewe restith not; and if Y am stille, it goith not awei fro me.
- 8 But now my sorewe hath oppressid me, and alle my lymes ben dryuun in to nouyt.
- 9 My ryuelyngis seien witnessyng ayens me, and a fals spekere is reisid ayens my face, and ayenseith me.
- 10 He gaderide togidere his woodnesse in me, and he manaasside me, and gnastide ayens me with his teeth; myn enemye bihelde me with ferdful iyen.
- 11 Thei openyden her mouthis on me, and thei seiden schenschip, and smytiden my cheke; and thei ben fillid with my peynes.
- 12 God hath closid me togidere at the wickid, and hath youe me to the hondis of wickid men.
- 13 Y thilke riche man and famouse sum tyme, am al to brokun sudeynli; `he helde my nol; he hath broke me, and hath set me as in to a signe.
- 14 He hath cumpasside me with hise speris, he woundide togidere my leendis; he sparide not, and schedde out myn entrails in to the erthe.
- 15 He beet me with wounde on wounde; he as a giaunt felde in on me.
- 16 Y sewide togidere a sak on my skyn; and Y hilide my fleisch with aische.
- 17 My face bolnyde of wepynge, and myn iyeliddis wexiden derke.
- 18 Y suffride these thingis with out wickidnesse of myn hond, `that is, werk, whanne Y hadde cleene preieris to God.
- 19 Erthe, hile thou not my blood, and my cry fynde not in thee a place of hidyng.
- 20 `For, lo! my witnesse is in heuene; and the knowere of my consience is in hiye places.
- 21 A! my frendis, ful of wordis, myn iye droppith to God.
- 22 And `Y wolde, that a man were demed so with God, as the sone of man is demed with his felowe.
- 23 `For lo! schorte yeeris passen, and Y go a path, bi which Y schal not turne ayen.

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.
