Proverbs 26
-
1 As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, So honour
is not comely for a fool. - 2 As a bird by wandering, as a swallow by flying, So reviling without cause doth not come.
- 3 A whip is for a horse, a bridle for an ass, And a rod for the back of fools.
- 4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, Lest thou be like to him--even thou.
- 5 Answer a fool according to his folly, Lest he be wise in his own eyes.
- 6 He is cutting off feet, he is drinking injury, Who is sending things by the hand of a fool.
- 7 Weak have been the two legs of the lame, And a parable in the mouth of fools.
-
8 As one who is binding a stone in a sling, So
is he who is giving honour to a fool. - 9 A thorn hath gone up into the hand of a drunkard, And a parable in the mouth of fools.
-
10 Great
is the Former of all, And He is rewarding a fool, And is rewarding transgressors. - 11 As a dog hath returned to its vomit, A fool is repeating his folly.
- 12 Thou hast seen a man wise in his own eyes, More hope of a fool than of him!
-
13 The slothful hath said, `A lion
is in the way, A lion is in the broad places.' - 14 The door turneth round on its hinge, And the slothful on his bed.
- 15 The slothful hath hid his hand in a dish, He is weary of bringing it back to his mouth.
-
16 Wiser
is the slothful in his own eyes, Than seven men returning a reason. -
17 Laying hold on the ears of a dog,
Is a passer-by making himself wrath for strife not his own. -
18 As
one pretending to be feeble, Who is casting sparks, arrows, and death, - 19 So hath a man deceived his neighbour, And hath said, `Am not I playing?'
- 20 Without wood is fire going out, And without a tale-bearer, contention ceaseth,
- 21 Coal to burning coals, and wood to fire, And a man of contentions to kindle strife.
-
22 The words of a tale-bearer
are as self-inflicted wounds, And they have gone down to the inner parts of the heart. -
23 Silver of dross spread over potsherd,
Are burning lips and an evil heart. - 24 By his lips doth a hater dissemble, And in his heart he placeth deceit,
-
25 When his voice is gracious trust not in him, For seven abominations
are in his heart. - 26 Hatred is covered by deceit, Revealed is its wickedness in an assembly.
- 27 Whoso is digging a pit falleth into it, And the roller of a stone, to him it turneth.
- 28 A lying tongue hateth its bruised ones, And a flattering mouth worketh an overthrow!
-
1 As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, So honour

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.
