Proverbs 25
- 1 Also these ben the Parablis of Salomon, whiche the men of Ezechie, kyng of Juda, translatiden.
- 2 The glorie of God is to hele a word; and the glorie of kyngis is to seke out a word.
- 3 Heuene aboue, and the erthe bynethe, and the herte of kyngis is vnserchable.
- 4 Do thou a wei rust fro siluer, and a ful cleene vessel schal go out.
- 5 Do thou awei vnpite fro the cheer of the kyng, and his trone schal be maad stidfast bi riytfulnesse.
- 6 Appere thou not gloriouse bifore the kyng, and stonde thou not in the place of grete men.
- 7 For it is betere, that it be seid to thee, Stie thou hidur, than that thou be maad low bifore the prince.
- 8 Brynge thou not forth soone tho thingis in strijf, whiche thin iyen sien; lest aftirward thou maist not amende, whanne thou hast maad thi frend vnhonest.
- 9 Trete thi cause with thi frend, and schewe thou not priuyte to a straunge man;
- 10 lest perauenture he haue ioye of thi fal, whanne he hath herde, and ceesse not to do schenschipe to thee. Grace and frenschip delyueren, whiche kepe thou to thee, that thou be not maad repreuable.
- 11 A goldun pomel in beddis of siluer is he, that spekith a word in his time.
- 12 A goldun eere ryng, and a schinynge peerle is he, that repreueth a wijs man, and an eere obeiynge.
- 13 As the coold of snow in the dai of heruest, so a feithful messanger to hym that sente `thilke messanger, makith his soule to haue reste.
- 14 A cloude and wind, and reyn not suynge, is a gloriouse man, and not fillynge biheestis.
- 15 A prince schal be maad soft bi pacience; and a soft tunge schal breke hardnesse.
- 16 Thou hast founde hony, ete thou that that suffisith to thee; lest perauenture thou be fillid, and brake it out.
- 17 Withdrawe thi foot fro the hous of thi neiybore; lest sum tyme he be fillid, and hate thee.
- 18 A dart, and a swerd, and a scharp arowe, a man that spekith fals witnessing ayens his neiybore.
- 19 A rotun tooth, and a feynt foot is he, that hopith on an vnfeithful man in the dai of angwisch,
- 20 and leesith his mentil in the dai of coold. Vynegre in a vessel of salt is he, that singith songis to the worste herte. As a mouyte noieth a cloth, and a worm noieth a tree, so the sorewe of a man noieth the herte.
- 21 If thin enemy hungrith, feede thou him; if he thirstith, yyue thou watir to hym to drinke;
- 22 for thou schalt gadere togidere coolis on his heed; and the Lord schal yelde to thee.
- 23 The north wind scatereth reynes; and a sorewful face distrieth a tunge bacbitinge.
- 24 It is betere to sitte in the corner of an hous without roof, than with a womman ful of chidyng, and in a comyn hous.
- 25 Coold watir to a thirsti man; and a good messanger fro a fer lond.
- 26 A welle disturblid with foot, and a veyne brokun, a iust man fallinge bifore a wickid man.
- 27 As it is not good to hym that etith myche hony; so he that is a serchere of maieste, schal be put doun fro glorie.
- 28 As a citee opyn, and with out cumpas of wallis; so is a man that mai not refreyne his spirit in speking.

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.
