Job 19
- 1 Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide, Hou long turmente ye my soule,
- 2 and al to-breken me with wordis?
- 3 Lo! ten sithis ye schenden me, and ye ben not aschamed, oppressynge me.
- 4 Forsothe and if Y `koude not, myn vnkynnyng schal be with me.
- 5 And ye ben reisid ayens me, and repreuen me with my schenschipis.
- 6 Nameli now vndurstonde ye, that God hath turmentid me not bi euene doom, and hath cumpassid me with hise betyngis.
- 7 Lo! Y suffrynge violence schal crye, and no man schal here; Y schal crye loude, and `noon is that demeth.
- 8 He bisette aboute my path, and Y may not go; and he settide derknessis in my weie.
- 9 He hath spuylid me of my glorye, and hath take awey the coroun fro myn heed.
- 10 He hath distried me on ech side, and Y perischide; and he hath take awei myn hope, as fro a tre pullid vp bi the roote.
- 11 His stronge veniaunce was wrooth ayens me; and he hadde me so as his enemye.
- 12 Hise theues camen togidere, and `maden to hem a wei bi me; and bisegiden my tabernacle in cumpas.
- 13 He made fer my britheren fro me; and my knowun as aliens yeden awei fro me.
- 14 My neiyboris forsoken me; and thei that knewen me han foryete me.
- 15 The tenauntis of myn hows, and myn handmaydis hadden me as a straunger; and Y was as a pilgrym bifor her iyen.
- 16 Y clepide my seruaunt, and he answeride not to me; with myn owne mouth Y preiede hym.
- 17 My wijf wlatide my breeth; and Y preiede the sones of my wombe.
- 18 Also foolis dispisiden me; and whanne Y was goon awei fro hem, thei bacbitiden me.
- 19 Thei, that weren my counselouris sum tyme, hadden abhomynacioun of me; and he, whom Y louede moost, was aduersarie to me.
- 20 Whanne fleischis weren wastid, my boon cleuyde to my skyn; and `oneli lippis ben left aboute my teeth.
- 21 Haue ye merci on me, haue ye merci on me, nameli, ye my frendis; for the hond of the Lord hath touchid me.
- 22 Whi pursuen ye me, as God pursueth; and ben fillid with my fleischis?
- 23 Who yyueth to me, that my wordis be writun? Who yyueth to me,
- 24 that tho be writun in a book with an yrun poyntil, ethir with a plate of leed; ethir with a chisel be grauun in a flynt?
- 25 For Y woot, that myn ayenbiere lyueth, and in the laste dai Y schal rise fro the erthe;
- 26 and eft Y schal be cumpassid with my skyn, and in my fleisch Y schal se God, my sauyour.
- 27 Whom Y my silf schal se, and myn iyen schulen biholde, and not an other man. This myn hope is kept in my bosum.
- 28 Whi therfor seien ye now, Pursue we hym, and fynde we the roote of a word ayens hym?
- 29 Therfor fle ye fro the face of the swerd; for the swerd is the vengere of wickidnessis, and wite ye, that doom schal be.

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.
