Noah Webster's Bible 1833
5:1 | Call now, if there is any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn? |
5:2 | For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one. |
5:3 | I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation. |
5:4 | His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither is there any to deliver them. |
5:5 | Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and the robber swalloweth up their substance. |
5:6 | Although affliction cometh not forth from the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground; |
5:7 | Yet man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward. |
5:8 | I would seek to God, and to God would I commit my cause: |
5:9 | Who doeth great things and unsearchable; wonderful things without number: |
5:10 | Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields: |
5:11 | To set on high those that are low: that those who mourn may be exalted to safety. |
5:12 | He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise. |
5:13 | He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong. |
5:14 | They meet with darkness in the day-time, and grope in the noon-day as in the night. |
5:15 | But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand of the mighty. |
5:16 | So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth. |
5:17 | Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty: |
5:18 | For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole. |
5:19 | He will deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee. |
5:20 | In famine he will redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword. |
5:21 | Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh. |
5:22 | At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of the beasts of the earth. |
5:23 | For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee. |
5:24 | And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle will be in peace; and thou shalt visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin. |
5:25 | Thou shalt know also that thy seed will be great, and thy offspring as the grass of the earth. |
5:26 | Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, as a shock of corn cometh in in its season. |
5:27 | Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy good. |
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.
