Psalms 21
- 1 The `title of the oon and twentithe salm. To ouercome, for `the morewtid hynd; the salm of Dauid.
- 2 God, my God, biholde thou on me, whi hast thou forsake me? the wordis of my trespassis ben fer fro myn helthe.
- 3 Mi God, Y schal crye bi dai, and thou schalt not here; and bi nyyt, and not to vnwisdom to me.
- 4 Forsothe thou, the preisyng of Israel, dwellist in holynesse;
- 5 oure fadris hopiden in thee, thei hopiden, and thou delyueridist hem.
- 6 Thei crieden to thee, and thei weren maad saaf; thei hopiden in thee, and thei weren not schent.
- 7 But Y am a worm, and not man; the schenschip of men, and the outcastyng of the puple.
- 8 Alle men seynge me scorneden me; thei spaken with lippis, and stiriden the heed.
- 9 He hopide in the Lord, delyuere he hym; make he hym saaf, for he wole hym.
- 10 For thou it art that drowist me out of the wombe, thou art myn hope fro the tetis of my modir;
- 11 in to thee Y am cast forth fro the wombe. Fro the wombe of my modir thou art my God; departe thou not fro me.
- 12 For tribulacioun is next; for noon is that helpith.
- 13 Many calues cumpassiden me; fatte bolis bisegiden me.
- 14 Thei openyden her mouth on me; as doith a lioun rauyschynge and rorynge.
- 15 I am sched out as watir; and alle my boonys ben scaterid. Myn herte is maad, as wex fletynge abrood; in the myddis of my wombe.
- 16 Mi vertu driede as a tiyl stoon, and my tunge cleuede to my chekis; and thou hast brouyt forth me in to the dust of deth.
- 17 For many doggis cumpassiden me; the counsel of wickid men bisegide me. Thei delueden myn hondis and my feet;
- 18 thei noumbriden alle my boonys. Sotheli thei lokiden, and bihelden me;
- 19 thei departiden my clothis to hem silf, and thei senten lot on my cloth.
- 20 But thou, Lord, delaie not thin help fro me; biholde thou to my defence.
- 21 God, delyuere thou my lijf fro swerd; and delyuere thou myn oon aloone fro the hond of the dogge.
- 22 Make thou me saaf fro the mouth of a lioun; and my mekenesse fro the hornes of vnycornes.
- 23 I schal telle thi name to my britheren; Y schal preise thee in the myddis of the chirche.
- 24 Ye that dreden the Lord, herie hym; alle the seed of Jacob, glorifie ye hym.
- 25 Al the seed of Israel drede hym; for he forsook not, nethir dispiside the preier of a pore man. Nethir he turnede awei his face fro me; and whanne Y criede to hym, he herde me.
- 26 Mi preisyng is at thee in a greet chirche; Y schal yelde my vowis in the siyt of men dredynge hym.
- 27 Pore men schulen ete, and schulen be fillid, and thei schulen herie the Lord, that seken hym; the hertis of hem schulen lyue in to the world of world.
- 28 Alle the endis of erthe schulen bithenke; and schulen be conuertid to the Lord. And alle the meynees of hethene men; schulen worschipe in his siyt.
- 29 For the rewme is the Lordis; and he schal be Lord of hethene men.
- 30 Alle the fatte men of erthe eeten and worschipiden; alle men, that goen doun in to erthe, schulen falle doun in his siyt.
- 31 And my soule schal lyue to hym; and my seed schal serue him.
- 32 A generacioun to comyng schal be teld to the Lord; and heuenes schulen telle his riytfulnesse to the puple that schal be borun, whom the Lord made.

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.
The persistent session key allows viewing, while editing is only possible when the correct favourite verse is provided.

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.
