Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 12:1 | And Job answered and said, |
| 12:2 | No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you. |
| 12:3 | But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: yes, who knoweth not such things as these? |
| 12:4 | I am as one mocked by his neighbor, who calleth upon God, and he answereth him: the just upright man is derided. |
| 12:5 | He that is ready to slip with his feet is as a lamp despised in the thought of him that is at ease. |
| 12:6 | The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth abundantly. |
| 12:7 | But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee: |
| 12:8 | Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare to thee. |
| 12:9 | Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the LORD hath wrought this? |
| 12:10 | In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. |
| 12:11 | Doth not the ear try words? and the mouth taste its food? |
| 12:12 | With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding. |
| 12:13 | With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding. |
| 12:14 | Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening. |
| 12:15 | Behold, he withholdeth the waters, and they dry up: also he sendeth them out, and they overturn the earth. |
| 12:16 | With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his. |
| 12:17 | He leadeth counselors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools. |
| 12:18 | He looseth the bond of kings, and girdeth their loins with a girdle. |
| 12:19 | He leadeth princes away spoiled, and overthroweth the mighty. |
| 12:20 | He removeth away the speech of the trusty, and taketh away the understanding of the aged. |
| 12:21 | He poureth contempt upon princes, and weakeneth the strength of the mighty. |
| 12:22 | He revealeth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth to light the shades of death. |
| 12:23 | He increaseth nations, and destroyeth them: he enlargeth nations, and straiteneth them again. |
| 12:24 | He taketh away the heart of the chief of the people of the earth, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way. |
| 12:25 | They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man. |
Noah Webster's Bible 1833
While Noah Webster, just a few years after producing his famous Dictionary of the English Language, produced his own modern translation of the English Bible in 1833; the public remained too loyal to the King James Version for Webster’s version to have much impact.
