1
Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.
10,662
2
And the Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.
10,663
3
And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was distressed by reason of the archers.
10,664
4
Then said Saul unto his armorbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armorbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
10,665
5
And when his armorbearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell upon his sword, and died.
10,666
6
So Saul died, and his three sons; and all his house died together.
10,667
7
And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
10,668
8
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
10,669
9
And they stripped him, and took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry the tidings unto their idols, and to the people.
10,670
10
And they put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.
10,671
11
And when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
10,672
12
all the valiant men arose, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
10,673
13
So Saul died for his trespass which he committed against Jehovah, because of the word of Jehovah, which he kept not; and also for that he asked counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to inquire [thereby] ,
10,674
14
and inquired not of Jehovah: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.
10,675
1
Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.
10,676
2
In times past, even when Saul was king, it was thou that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and Jehovah thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt be shepherd of my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over my people Israel.
10,677
3
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of Jehovah by Samuel.
10,678
4
And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (the same is Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
10,679
5
And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come in hither. Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.
10,680
6
And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. And Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
10,681
7
And David dwelt in the stronghold; therefore they called it the city of David.
10,682
8
And he built the city round about, from Millo even round about; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
10,683
9
And David waxed greater and greater; for Jehovah of hosts was with him.
10,684
10
Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of Jehovah concerning Israel.
10,685
11
And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them at one time.
10,686
12
And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
10,687
13
He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
10,688
14
And they stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew the Philistines; and Jehovah saved them by a great victory.
10,689
15
And three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
10,690
16
And David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth-lehem.
10,691
17
And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem, which is by the gate!
10,692
18
And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but David would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto Jehovah,
10,693
19
and said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with [the jeopardy of] their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.
10,694
20
And Abishai, the brother of Joab, he was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them, and had a name among the three.
10,695
21
Of the three, he was more honorable than the two, and was made their captain: howbeit he attained not to the [first] three.
10,696
22
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he slew the two [sons of] Ariel of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow.
10,697
23
And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high; and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
10,698
24
These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had a name among the three mighty men.
10,699
25
Behold, he was more honorable than the thirty, but he attained not to the [first] three: and David set him over his guard.
10,700
26
Also the mighty men of the armies: Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Beth-lehem,

Dataset Card for ASV Bible Dataset

This dataset contains the entire American Standard Version (ASV) of the Bible, organized by books and chapters in CSV format. Each chapter of each book is saved as a separate CSV file containing the verses, formatted by verse ID, verse number, and verse text. The dataset is uploaded as a zip file called biblecsv.zip. It is intended for use in NLP applications and other research areas requiring structured biblical text.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

This dataset provides the text of the American Standard Version (ASV) Bible in a structured format, with the text divided by chapters and verses. The data is organized such that each book has its own folder, and inside those folders, each chapter is stored in a CSV file. Each CSV file contains three columns: Verse ID, Verse Number, and Verse Text.

The American Standard Version is one of the most modern translations of the Bible, making it particularly useful for creating parallel Bible datasets. Due to its use of contemporary language, it serves as an excellent reference point when translating into other languages. Many translations today are contextual, prioritizing meaning over a word-for-word translation. As a result, the ASV provides a solid foundation for parallel translations, where the focus is often on the intended meaning rather than direct word-for-word equivalence.

  • Demo [optional]: [More Information Needed]

Uses

Direct Use

This dataset can be used for various Natural Language Processing tasks, such as:

  • Text analysis of the Bible.
  • Bible-based question answering systems.
  • Religious text classification.
  • Parallel Bible dataset creation, especially useful for machine translation research or linguistic analysis.

Out-of-Scope Use

This dataset is not intended for:

  • Uses that require translations or versions other than the American Standard Version.
  • Use in contexts that may misrepresent the religious or theological content of the Bible.

Dataset Structure

The dataset consists of folders where each folder is named after a book in the Bible. Inside each folder, there are CSV files named after the chapter numbers, which contain the following columns:

  • Verse ID: Unique identifier for each verse.
  • Verse Number: The verse number in the chapter.
  • Verse: The text of the verse.

Dataset Structure: 

| Verse ID | Verse Number | Verse                                          |
|----------|--------------|------------------------------------------------|
| 1        | 1            | In the beginning God created the heavens and  |
|          |              | the earth.                                    |
| 2        | 2            | And the earth was without form, and void; and |
|          |              | darkness was upon the face of the deep.       |
| 3        | 3            | And God said, Let there be light: and there   |
|          |              | was light.                                    |
| ...      | ...          | ...                                            |

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

The dataset was created to provide a structured, easy-to-use format of the Bible for NLP research and analysis. The ASV was chosen due to its status as a public domain translation, making it freely accessible for various use cases.

Source Data

The source data is the American Standard Version (ASV) Bible text. The text was split into chapters and verses, and organized into folders based on the book name and chapter number.

Data Collection and Processing

The data was manually processed from the ASV Bible. It was then split by book, chapter, and verse and stored in CSV files. The columns were standardized to include the Verse ID, Verse Number, and Verse Text.

Who are the source data producers?

The source data was originally produced by the translators of the American Standard Version Bible.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

While the dataset is based on a public domain text, it's important to note that the ASV is a translation, and translations can carry their own biases. Additionally, religious texts may have varying interpretations that are not reflected in the dataset. Users should be aware of these factors when using this dataset.

Recommendations

Users should be cautious about using this dataset in contexts where the interpretation of biblical verses could have sensitive or controversial implications.
