Job 31
- 1 A covenant I made for mine eyes, And what--do I attend to a virgin?
-
2 And what
is the portion of God from above? And the inheritance of the Mighty from the heights? - 3 Is not calamity to the perverse? And strangeness to workers of iniquity?
- 4 Doth not He see my ways, And all my steps number?
- 5 If I have walked with vanity, And my foot doth hasten to deceit,
- 6 He doth weigh me in righteous balances, And God doth know my integrity.
- 7 If my step doth turn aside from the way, And after mine eyes hath my heart gone, And to my hands cleaved hath blemish,
- 8 Let me sow--and another eat, And my products let be rooted out.
- 9 If my heart hath been enticed by woman, And by the opening of my neighbour I laid wait,
- 10 Grind to another let my wife, And over her let others bend.
-
11 For it
is a wicked thing, and a judicial iniquity; -
12 For a fire it
is , to destruction it consumeth, And among all mine increase doth take root, - 13 If I despise the cause of my man-servant, And of my handmaid, In their contending with me,
- 14 Then what do I do when God ariseth? And when He doth inspect, What do I answer Him?
- 15 Did not He that made me in the womb make him? Yea, prepare us in the womb doth One.
- 16 If I withhold from pleasure the poor, And the eyes of the widow do consume,
- 17 And I do eat my morsel by myself, And the orphan hath not eat of it,
-
18 (But from my youth He grew up with me as
with a father, And from the belly of my mother I am led.) -
19 If I see
any perishing without clothing, And there is no covering to the needy, - 20 If his loins have not blessed me, And from the fleece of my sheep He doth not warm himself,
-
21 If I have waved at the fatherless my hand, When I see in
him the gate of my court, - 22 My shoulder from its blade let fall, And mine arm from the bone be broken.
-
23 For a dread unto me
is calamity from God, And because of His excellency I am not able. - 24 If I have made gold my confidence, And to the pure gold have said, `My trust,'
-
25 If I rejoice because great
is my wealth, And because abundance hath my hand found, - 26 If I see the light when it shineth, And the precious moon walking,
- 27 And my heart is enticed in secret, And my hand doth kiss my mouth,
-
28 It also
is a judicial iniquity, For I had lied to God above. - 29 If I rejoice at the ruin of my hater, And stirred up myself when evil found him,
- 30 Yea, I have not suffered my mouth to sin, To ask with an oath his life.
- 31 If not--say ye, O men of my tent, `O that we had of his flesh, we are not satisfied.'
- 32 In the street doth not lodge a stranger, My doors to the traveller I open.
- 33 If I have covered as Adam my transgressions, To hide in my bosom mine iniquity,
- 34 Because I fear a great multitude, And the contempt of families doth affright me, Then I am silent, I go not out of the opening.
- 35 Who giveth to me a hearing? lo, my mark. The Mighty One doth answer me, And a bill hath mine adversary written.
- 36 If not--on my shoulder I take it up, I bind it a crown on myself.
- 37 The number of my steps I tell Him, As a leader I approach Him.
- 38 If against me my land doth cry out, And together its furrows weep,
- 39 If its strength I consumed without money, And the life of its possessors, I have caused to breathe out,
- 40 Instead of wheat let a thorn go forth, And instead of barley a useless weed! The words of Job are finished.

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.
