Matthew 7
- 1 Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged.
- 2 For as you have been judging, so you will be judged, and with your measure will it be measured to you.
- 3 And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye?
- 4 Or how will you say to your brother, Let me take out the grain of dust from your eye, when you yourself have a bit of wood in your eye?
- 5 You false one, first take out the bit of wood from your eye, then will you see clearly to take out the grain of dust from your brother's eye.
- 6 Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, or put your jewels before pigs, for fear that they will be crushed under foot by the pigs whose attack will then be made against you.
- 7 Make a request, and it will be answered; what you are searching for you will get; give the sign, and the door will be open to you:
- 8 Because to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire, and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.
- 9 Or which of you, if his son makes a request for bread, will give him a stone?
- 10 Or if he makes a request for a fish, will give him a snake?
- 11 If you, then, being evil, are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who make requests to him?
- 12 All those things, then, which you would have men do to you, even so do you to them: because this is the law and the prophets.
- 13 Go in by the narrow door; for wide is the door and open is the way which goes to destruction, and great numbers go in by it.
- 14 For narrow is the door and hard the road to life, and only a small number make discovery of it.
- 15 Be on the watch for false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inside they are cruel wolves.
- 16 By their fruits you will get knowledge of them. Do men get grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?
- 17 Even so, every good tree gives good fruit; but the bad tree gives evil fruit.
- 18 It is not possible for a good tree to give bad fruit, and a bad tree will not give good fruit.
- 19 Every tree which does not give good fruit is cut down and put in the fire.
- 20 So by their fruits you will get knowledge of them.
- 21 Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will go into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the pleasure of my Father in heaven.
- 22 A great number will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, were we not prophets in your name, and did we not by your name send out evil spirits, and by your name do works of power?
- 23 And then will I say to them, I never had knowledge of you: go from me, you workers of evil.
- 24 Everyone, then, to whom my words come and who does them, will be like a wise man who made his house on a rock;
- 25 And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house, but it was not moved; because it was based on the rock.
- 26 And everyone to whom my words come and who does them not, will be like a foolish man who made his house on sand;
- 27 And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house; and it came down and great was its fall.
- 28 And it came about, when Jesus had come to the end of these words, that the people were surprised at his teaching,
- 29 for he was teaching as one having authority, and not as their scribes.

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.
