Ephesians 4
- 1 I therfore which am in bondes for the lordes sake exhorte you that ye walke worthy of the vocacion wherwith ye are called
- 2 in all humblenes of mynde and meknes and longe sufferynge forbearinge one another thorowe love
- 3 and that ye be dyliget to kepe ye vnitie of ye sprete in the bonde of peace
- 4 beynge one body and one sprete eve as ye are called in one hope of youre callynge.
- 5 Let ther be but one lorde one fayth one baptim:
- 6 one god and father of all which is above all thorow all and in you all.
- 7 Vnto every one of vs is geven grace acordinge to the measure of ye gyft of christ.
- 8 Wherfore he sayth: He is gone vp an hye and hath ledde captivitie captive and hath geven gyftes vnto men.
- 9 That he ascended: what meaneth it but that he also descended fyrst into the lowest parties of the erth?
- 10 He that descended is even the same also that ascended vp even above all hevens to fulfill all thinges.
- 11 And the very same made some Apostles some prophetes some Evangelistes some Sheperdes some Teachers:
- 12 yt the sainctes might have all thinges necessarie to worke and minister with all to the edifyinge of the body of christ
- 13 tyll we every one (in the vnitie of fayth and knowledge of the sonne of god) growe vp vnto a parfayte man after ye measure of age of the fulnes of Christ.
- 14 That we hence forth be no moare chyldren wauerynge and caryed with every wynde of doctryne by the wylynes of men and craftynes wherby they laye a wayte for vs to deceave vs.
- 15 But let vs folowe the trueth in loue and in all thynges growe in him which is the heed that ys to saye Christ
- 16 in whom all the body ys coupled and knet togedder in every ioynt wherwith one ministreth to another (accordinge to the operacion as every parte hath his measure) and increaseth the body vnto the edyfyinge of it silfe in love.
- 17 This I saye therfore and testifie in ye lorde that ye hence forth walke not as other gentyls walke in vanitie of their mynde
- 18 blynded in their vnderstondynge beynge straungers from the lyfe which is in god thorow the ignorancy that is in them because of the blyndnes of their hertes:
- 19 which beynge past repentaunce have geven them selves vnto wantannes to worke all manner of vnclennes even with gredynes.
- 20 But ye have not so learned Christ
- 21 if so be ye have hearde of him and are taught in him even as the trueth is in Iesu.
- 22 So then as concernynge the coversacion in tyme past laye from you that olde ma which is corrupte thorow the deceavable lustes
- 23 and be ye renued in the sprete of youre myndes
- 24 and put on that newe man which after the ymage of God is shapen in ryghtewesnes and true holynes.
- 25 Wherfore put awaye lyinge and speake every man truth vnto his neghbour for as moche as we are members one of another.
- 26 Be angrye but synne not let not the sonne go doune apon your wrathe
- 27 nether geue place vnto ye backbyter.
- 28 Let him yt stole steale no moare but let him rather laboure with his hondes some good thinge that he maye have to geve vnto him that nedeth.
- 29 Let no filthy comunicacion procede out of youre mouthes: but yt whych is good to edefye with all when nede ys: that it maye have faveour with the hearers.
- 30 And greve not the holy sprete of God by whome ye are sealed vnto the daye of redempcion.
- 31 Let all bitternes fearsnes and wrath rorynge and cursyd speakynge be put awaye from you with all maliciousnes.
- 32 Be ye courteouse one to another and mercifull forgevynge one another eve as god for Christes sake forgave you.

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.
