1 John 4
- 1 Ye beloved beleve not every sprete: but prove the spretes whether they are of God or no: for many falce Prophetes are gone out into the worlde.
- 2 Herby shall ye knowe the sprete of God. Every sprete that confesseth that Iesus Christ is come in the flesshe is of God.
- 3 And every sprete which cofesseth not yt Iesus Christ is come in the flesshe is not of God. And this is that sprete of Antichrist of whom ye have hearde howe that he shuld come: and even now alredy is he in the worlde.
- 4 Lytell chyldre ye are of God and have overcome them: for greater is he yt is in you then he that is in the worlde.
- 5 They are of the worlde and therfore speake they of the worlde and the worlde heareth them.
- 6 We are of God. He yt knoweth God heareth vs: he that is not of God heareth vs not. Herby knowe we ye sprete of veritie and the sprete of erroure.
- 7 Beloved let vs love one another: for love cometh of God. And every one that loveth is borne of God and knoweth God.
- 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God: for God is love.
- 9 In this appered ye love of god to vs ward because that god sent his only begotten sonne into the worlde that we myght live thorow him.
- 10 Herin is love not that we loved god but that he loved vs and sent his sonne to make agrement for oure sinnes.
- 11 Beloved yf god so loved vs we ought also to love one another.
- 12 No man hath sene god at enytyme. Yf we love one another god dwelleth in vs and his love is parfect in vs.
- 13 Herby know we that we dwell in him and he in vs: because he hath geven vs of his sprete.
- 14 And we have sene and do testifie that the father sent the sonne which is the saveour of the worlde.
- 15 Whosoever confesseth that Iesus is the sonne of god in him dwelleth god and he in god.
- 16 And we have knowen and beleved the love that god hath to vs. God is love and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in god and god in him.
- 17 Herin is the love perfect in vs that we shuld have trust in the daye of iudgement: For as he is even so are we in this worlde.
- 18 Ther is no feare in love but parfect love casteth out all feare for feare hath paynfulnes. He yt feareth is not parfect in love.
- 19 We love him for he loved vs fyrst.
- 20 Yf a man saye I love god and yet hate his brother he is a lyar. For how can he yt loveth not his brother whom he hath sene love god whom he hath not sene?
- 21 And this commaundemet have we of him: that he which loveth God shuld love his brother also.

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.
