Proverbs 3
- 1 Mi sone, foryete thou not my lawe; and thyn herte kepe my comaundementis.
- 2 For tho schulen sette to thee the lengthe of daies, and the yeeris of lijf, and pees.
- 3 Merci and treuthe forsake thee not; bynde thou tho to thi throte, and write in the tablis of thin herte.
- 4 And thou schalt fynde grace, and good teching bifore God and men.
- 5 Haue thou trist in the Lord, of al thin herte; and triste thou not to thi prudence.
- 6 In alle thi weies thenke thou on hym, and he schal dresse thi goyngis.
- 7 Be thou not wijs anentis thi silf; drede thou God, and go awei fro yuel.
- 8 For whi helthe schal be in thi nawle, and moisting of thi boonys.
- 9 Onoure thou the Lord of thi catel, and of the beste of alle thi fruytis yyue thou to pore men;
- 10 and thi bernes schulen be fillid with abundaunce, and pressours schulen flowe with wiyn.
- 11 My sone, caste thou not awei the teching of the Lord; and faile thou not, whanne thou art chastisid of him.
- 12 For the Lord chastisith hym, whom he loueth; and as a fadir in the sone he plesith hym.
- 13 Blessid is the man that fyndith wisdom, and which flowith with prudence.
- 14 The geting therof is betere than the marchaundie of gold and of siluer; the fruytis therof ben the firste and clenneste.
- 15 It is preciousere than alle richessis; and alle thingis that ben desirid, moun not be comparisound to this.
- 16 Lengthe of daies is in the riythalf therof, and richessis and glorie ben in the lifthalf therof.
- 17 The weies therof ben feire weies, and alle the pathis therof ben pesible.
- 18 It is a tre of lijf to hem that taken it; and he that holdith it, is blessid.
- 19 The Lord foundide the erthe bi wisdom; he stablischide heuenes bi prudence.
- 20 The depthis of watris braken out bi his wisdom; and cloudis wexen togidere bi dewe.
- 21 My sone, these thingis flete not awey fro thin iyen; kepe thou my lawe, and my counsel;
- 22 and lijf schal be to thi soule, and grace `schal be to thi chekis.
- 23 Thanne thou schalt go tristili in thi weie; and thi foot schal not snapere.
- 24 If thou schalt slepe, thou schalt not drede; thou schalt reste, and thi sleep schal be soft.
- 25 Drede thou not bi sudeyne feer, and the powers of wickid men fallynge in on thee.
- 26 For the Lord schal be at thi side; and he schal kepe thi foot, that thou be not takun.
- 27 Nil thou forbede to do wel him that mai; if thou maist, and do thou wel.
- 28 Seie thou not to thi frend, Go, and turne thou ayen, and to morewe Y schal yyue to thee; whanne thou maist yyue anoon.
- 29 Ymagyne thou not yuel to thi freend, whanne he hath trist in thee.
- 30 Stryue thou not ayens a man with out cause, whanne he doith noon yuel to thee.
- 31 Sue thou not an vniust man, sue thou not hise weies.
- 32 For ech disseyuer is abhomynacioun of the Lord; and his speking is with simple men.
- 33 Nedinesse is sent of the Lord in the hous of a wickid man; but the dwelling places of iust men schulen be blessid.
- 34 He schal scorne scorneris; and he schal yyue grace to mylde men.
- 35 Wise men schulen haue glorie; enhaunsing of foolis is schenschipe.

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.

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.
