    Job 34
    • 1   And Helyu pronounside, and spak also these thingis,
    • 2   Wise men, here ye my wordis, and lerned men, herkne ye me; for the eere preueth wordis,
    • 3   and the throte demeth metis bi taast.
    • 4   Chese we doom to vs; and se we among vs, what is the betere.
    • 5   For Job seide, Y am iust, and God hath distried my doom.
    • 6   For whi lesynge is in demynge me, and myn arowe is violent with out ony synne.
    • 7   Who is a man, as Joob is, that drynkith scornyng as watir?
    • 8   that goith with men worchynge wickidnesse, and goith with vnfeithful men?
    • 9   For he seide, A man schal not plese God, yhe, thouy he renneth with God.
    • 10   Therfor ye men hertid, `that is, vndurstonde, here ye me; vnpite, `ethir cruelte, be fer fro God, and wickidnesse fro Almyyti God.
    • 11   For he schal yelde the werk of man to hym; and bi the weies of ech man he schal restore to hym.
    • 12   For verili God schal not condempne with out cause; nether Almyyti God schal distrie doom.
    • 13   What othere man hath he ordeyned on the lond? ether whom hath he set on the world, which he made?
    • 14   If God dressith his herte to hym, he schal drawe to hym silf his spirit and blast.
    • 15   Ech fleisch schal faile togidere; `and a man schal turne ayen in to aisch.
    • 16   Therfor if thou hast vndurstondyng, here thou that that is seid, and herkne the vois of my speche.
    • 17   Whether he that loueth not doom may be maad hool? and hou condempnest thou so myche him, that is iust?
    • 18   Which seith to the kyng, Thou art apostata; which clepith the duykis vnpitouse, `ethir vnfeithful.
    • 19   `Which takith not the persoones of princes, nether knew a tyraunt, whanne he stryuede ayens a pore man; for alle men ben the werk of hise hondis.
    • 20   Thei schulen die sudeynli, and at mydnyyt puplis schulen be troblid, `ethir schulen be bowid, as othere bookis han; and schulen passe, and schulen take `awei `a violent man with out hond.
    • 21   For the iyen of God ben on the weies of men, and biholdith alle goyngis of hem.
    • 22   No derknessis ben, and no schadewe of deeth is, that thei, that worchen wickidnesse, be hid there;
    • 23   for it is `no more in the power of man, that he come to God in to doom.
    • 24   God schal al to-breke many men and vnnoumbrable; and schal make othere men to stonde for hem.
    • 25   For he knowith the werkis of hem; therfor he schal brynge yn niyt, and thei schulen be al to-brokun.
    • 26   He smoot hem, as vnpitouse men, in the place of seinge men.
    • 27   Whiche yeden awei fro hym bi `castyng afore, and nolden vndurstonde alle hise weies.
    • 28   That thei schulden make the cry of a nedi man to come to hym, and that he schulde here the vois of pore men.
    • 29   For whanne he grauntith pees, who is that condempneth? Sithen he hidith his cheer, who is that seeth hym? And on folkis and on alle men `he hath power `to do siche thingis.
    • 30   Which makith `a man ypocrite to regne, for the synnes of the puple.
    • 31   Therfor for Y haue spoke to God, also Y schal not forbede thee.
    • 32   If Y erride, teche thou me; if Y spak wickidnesse, Y schal no more adde.
    • 33   Whether God axith that wickidnesse of thee, for it displeside thee? For thou hast bigunne to speke, and not Y; that if thou knowist ony thing betere, speke thou.
    • 34   Men vndurstondynge, speke to me; and a wise man, here me.
    • 35   Forsothe Joob spak folili, and hise wordis sownen not techyng.
    • 36   My fadir, be Joob preuede `til to the ende; ceesse thou not fro the man of wickidnesse,
    • 37   `that addith blasfemye ouer hise synnes. Be he constreyned among vs in the meene tyme; and thanne bi hise wordis stire he God to the doom.

  • John Wycliffe Bible (c.1395) (wycliffe - 2.4.1)

    2020-08-01

    English (enm)

    The Holy Bible, containing the Old and New Testaments, with the Apocryphal books, in the earliest English versions made from the Latin Vulgate by John Wycliffe and his followers, c.1395

    Source text https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(Wycliffe)

    John Wycliffe organized the first complete translation of the Bible into Middle English in the 1380s.

    The translation from the Vulgate was a collaborative effort, and it is not clear which portions are actually Wycliffe's work.

    Church authorities officially condemned the translators of the Bible into vernacular languages and called these heretics Lollards.

    Despite their prohibition, revised versions of Wycliffite Bibles remained in use for about 100 years.

    Wikisource attributes its source as the Wesley Center Online.

    That in turn was derived from the Fedosov transcription on the Slavic Bibles site http://www.sbible.ru

    The source text makes no use of archaic letters that were part of Middle English orthography.
    The Latin letter Yogh [ȝ] was evidently replaced by the letter [y] in the Fedosov transcription.

    The text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.

    Verse numbers were not used in either the earlier or later version of the Wycliffe Bible in the fourteenth century. Each chapter consisted of one unbroken block of text. There were not even any paragraphs. Hence whatever verse numbers we now have in modern editions have been added retrospectively by comparison with other English Bibles and the Latin Vulgate.

    Two books found in the Vulgate, II Esdras and Psalm 151, were never part of the Wycliffe Bible.

    Module build notes:
    1. The Prayer of Manasseh has been separated from 2 Chronicles in order to avoid a critical versification issue.
    cf. In Wikisource it was assigned as 2 Paralipomenon chapter 37.
    2. The Letter of Jeremiah has been joined to Baruch as chapter 6 thereof.
    3. The book order of Wycliffe's Bible differs from that of the Vulg versification used in this module.
    4. There are now 313 notes in the Wikisource document.
    5. The Wikisource text substantially matches that of the nine books in module version 1.0
    6. Each of these five verses not in the Vulg versification was appended to the previous verse: Deut.27.27 Esth.5.15 Ps.38.15 Ps.147.10 Luke.10.43
    7. There are also several verses without any text. Use Sword utility emptyvss to list these.

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.
