Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 28:1 | And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said to him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan. |
| 28:2 | Arise, go to Padan-aram, to the house of Bethuel thy mother's father; and take thee a wife from thence of the daughters of Laban thy mother's brother. |
| 28:3 | And God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people; |
| 28:4 | And give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee; that thou mayest inherit the land in which thou art a stranger, which God gave to Abraham. |
| 28:5 | And Isaac sent away Jacob: and he went to Padan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother. |
| 28:6 | When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and sent him away to Padan-aram, to take him a wife from thence; and that as he blessed him, he gave him a charge, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan; |
| 28:7 | And that Jacob obeyed his father, and his mother, and was gone to Padan-aram; |
| 28:8 | And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father; |
| 28:9 | Then went Esau to Ishmael, and took to the wives which he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife. |
| 28:10 | And Jacob went out from Beer-sheba, and went towards Haran. |
| 28:11 | And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set: and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. |
| 28:12 | And he dreamed, and behold, a ladder set upon the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold, the angels of God ascending and descending on it. |
| 28:13 | And behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land on which thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed. |
| 28:14 | And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth; and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. |
| 28:15 | And behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land: for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have declared to thee. |
| 28:16 | And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. |
| 28:17 | And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is no other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven. |
| 28:18 | And Jacob rose early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on the top of it. |
| 28:19 | And he called the name of that place Beth-el: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first. |
| 28:20 | And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, |
| 28:21 | So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God: |
| 28:22 | And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me, I will surely give the tenth to thee. |
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.
