Joshua 8
- 1 耶和華諭約書亞曰、勿畏葸、勿恐惶、起率軍旅往艾、我以艾王、與其民邑地、悉付爾手、
- 2 宜待艾與其王、如昔之待耶利哥與其王然、惟所獲之貨財牲畜、爾曹可取爲己有、當設伏於邑西、
- 3 約書亞與軍旅皆起、欲往於艾、遂簡勇士三萬、夤夜遣之、
- 4 命之曰、伏於邑西、距城勿甚遠、咸備以戰、
- 5 我與所率民衆、近於其邑、彼必如昔出而攻我、我則遁逃、
- 6 誘之出而追我、遠離其邑、自謂其人遁逃如昔、
- 7 我旣遁逃、爾則起自伏所、而取其邑、爾上帝耶和華必付之於爾手、
- 8 旣取邑、必焚之、遵耶和華所言、此我所命爾者、
- 9 約書亞旣遣之、遂往艾西、伏於伯特利與艾之間、是夜約書亞宿於民中、○
- 10 詰朝、約書亞夙興、核其民衆、偕以色列長老、先民往艾、
- 11 所從軍旅、近於邑前、建營艾北、有谷間於營艾、
- 12 又簡五千人伏於艾西、在伯特利與艾之間、
- 13 民之全軍列於邑北、伏兵列於邑西、是夜約書亞至谷中、
- 14 艾王見之、與民夙興、急出、至亞拉巴前、尅期與以色列人戰、不知邑西有伏兵也、
- 15 約書亞與以色列衆佯爲敗北、循野之道而遁、
- 16 艾民咸集、追襲約書亞、被誘離邑、
- 17 艾與伯特利、不留一男、悉追以色列族、邑門不閉、
- 18 耶和華諭約書亞曰、以所執之戟指艾、我必付之爾手、約書亞以戟指之、
- 19 旣舉手、伏兵急起、離伏所、趨入邑而取之、卽焚以火、
- 20 艾人回顧、望見邑中煙燄沖天、欲遁、左右維艱、遁於野之以色列人、轉而攻追之者、
- 21 約書亞與以色列衆、見伏兵已取邑、邑中煙燄上騰、反殺艾人、
- 22 伏兵亦出邑擊之、艾人困於其中、以色列人前後擊之、靡有孑遺、無得脫者、
- 23 生擒艾王、解至約書亞、
- 24 以色列人在田野、旣盡殺所追之艾人、使殞於刃、乃返於邑、以刃屠之、
- 25 是日艾民亡者、男女計一萬二千人、
- 26 蓋約書亞執戟指艾、不縮其手、迨及盡滅其民、
- 27 惟邑中之牲畜貨財、以色列人取而歸己、遵耶和華諭約書亞之命、
- 28 約書亞焚艾、使永爲邱墟、荒廢至今、
- 29 懸艾王於木、至於暮、日入時、循約書亞命、取屍下木、投諸邑門、壘石爲堆、至今猶存、○
- 30 時、約書亞爲以色列之上帝耶和華、建壇於以巴路山、
- 31 乃循耶和華僕摩西所命以色列人、摩西律書所載、以原石未加鐵器者建壇、民衆爲耶和華獻燔祭、及酬恩祭於其上、
- 32 約書亞在彼、於以色列人前、以摩西所書法律、錄之於石、
- 33 以色列衆、與長老、有司、士師、或宗族、或賓旅、咸立於匱之左右、在舁耶和華約匱之利未人祭司前、其半向基利心山、其半向以巴路山、爲以色列人祝嘏、循耶和華僕摩西所命、
- 34 厥後、約書亞宣讀律書所載祝詛諸言、
- 35 摩西所命者、約書亞於以色列會衆、與其婦孺、及其中賓旅前、悉宣讀之、不遺一詞、

How This All Works
Your persistent session key, together with your favourite verse, authenticates you. It links to all your notes and tags in the Bible. You can share it with loved ones so they can see your notes and tags.
However, to modify your notes and tags, you need both the persistent session key and your favourite verse.
Please Keep Your Favourite Verse Private
Your persistent session key and favourite verse provide you exclusive access to edit your notes and tags. Think of your persistent session key as a username and your favourite verse as a password. Therefore, ensure your favourite verse is kept private.

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.
