Job 7
- 1 Knyythod is lijf of man on erthe, and his daies ben as the daies of an hired man.
- 2 As an hert desireth schadowe, and as an hirede man abideth the ende of his werk;
- 3 so and Y hadde voide monethis, and Y noumbrede trauailous niytes to me.
- 4 If Y schal slepe, Y schal seie, Whanne schal Y rise? and eft Y schal abide the euentid, and Y schal be fillid with sorewis `til to derknessis.
- 5 Mi fleisch is clothid with rot, and filthis of dust; my skyn driede vp, and is drawun togidere.
- 6 My daies passiden swiftliere thanne a web is kit doun `of a webstere; and tho daies ben wastid with outen ony hope.
- 7 God, haue thou mynde, for my lijf is wynde, and myn iye schal not turne ayen, that it se goodis.
- 8 Nethir the siyt of man schal biholde me; but thin iyen ben in me, and Y schal not `be in deedli lijf.
- 9 As a cloude is wastid, and passith, so he that goith doun to helle, schal not stie;
- 10 nether schal turne ayen more in to his hows, and his place schal no more knowe hym.
- 11 Wherfor and Y schal not spare my mouth; Y schal speke in the tribulacioun of my spirit, Y schal talke togidere with the bitternesse of my soule.
- 12 Whether Y am the see, ethir a whal, for thou hast cumpassid me with prisoun?
- 13 If Y seie, My bed schal coumfort me, and Y schal be releeuyd, spekynge with me in my bed;
- 14 thou schalt make me aferd bi dremys, and thou schalt schake me with `orrour, ethir hidousnesse, `bi siytis.
- 15 Wherfor my soule `chees hangyng, and my boonys cheesiden deth.
- 16 `Y dispeiride, now Y schal no more lyue; Lord, spare thou me, for my daies ben nouyt.
- 17 What is a man, for thou `magnifiest hym? ether what settist thou thin herte toward hym?
- 18 Thou visitist hym eerly, and sudeynli thou preuest hym.
- 19 Hou long sparist thou not me, nether suffrist me, that Y swolowe my spotele?
- 20 Y haue synned; A! thou kepere of men, what schal Y do to thee? Whi hast thou set me contrarie to thee, and Y am maad greuouse to my silf?
- 21 Whi doist thou not awei my sinne, and whi takist thou not awei my wickidnesse? Lo! now Y schal slepe in dust, and if thou sekist me eerli, Y schal not abide.

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.
The persistent session key allows viewing, while editing is only possible when the correct favourite verse is provided.

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.
