Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 17:1 | My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me. |
| 17:2 | Are there not mockers with me? and doth not my eye continue in their provocation? |
| 17:3 | Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me? |
| 17:4 | For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them. |
| 17:5 | He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail. |
| 17:6 | He hath made me also a by-word of the people; and in former time I was as a tabret. |
| 17:7 | My eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shade. |
| 17:8 | Upright men shall be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite. |
| 17:9 | The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger. |
| 17:10 | But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you. |
| 17:11 | My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart. |
| 17:12 | They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness. |
| 17:13 | If I wait, the grave is my house: I have made my bed in the darkness. |
| 17:14 | I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister. |
| 17:15 | And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who will see it? |
| 17:16 | They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust. |
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.
