Noah Webster's Bible 1833
4:1 | Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said, |
4:2 | If we essay to commune with thee, wilt thou be grieved? but who can refrain from speaking? |
4:3 | Behold, thou hast instructed many, and thou hast strengthened the weak hands. |
4:4 | Thy words have upheld him that was falling, and thou hast strengthened the feeble knees. |
4:5 | But now it hath come upon thee, and thou faintest; it toucheth thee, and thou art troubled. |
4:6 | Is not this thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways? |
4:7 | Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off; |
4:8 | Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. |
4:9 | By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. |
4:10 | The roaring of the lion, and the voice of the fierce lion, and the teeth of the young lions, are broken. |
4:11 | The old lion perisheth for lack of prey, and the stout lion's whelps are scattered abroad. |
4:12 | Now a thing was secretly brought to me, and my ear received a small sound of it. |
4:13 | In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men. |
4:14 | Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake. |
4:15 | Then a spirit passed before my face; the hair of my flesh stood up: |
4:16 | It stood still, but I could not discern its form: an image was before my eyes, there was silence, and I heard a voice, saying, |
4:17 | Shall mortal man be more just than God? shall a man be more pure than his maker? |
4:18 | Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly: |
4:19 | How much less in them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth? |
4:20 | They are destroyed from morning to evening: they perish for ever without any regarding it. |
4:21 | Doth not their excellence which is in them depart? they die, even without wisdom. |
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.
