Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 34:1 | Furthermore Elihu answered and said, |
| 34:2 | Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear to me, ye that have knowledge. |
| 34:3 | For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth food. |
| 34:4 | Let us choose to us judgment: let us know among ourselves what is good. |
| 34:5 | For Job hath said, I am righteous: and God hath taken away my judgment. |
| 34:6 | Should I lie against my right? my wound is incurable without transgression. |
| 34:7 | What man is like Job, who drinketh up scorning like water? |
| 34:8 | Who goeth in company with the workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men. |
| 34:9 | For he hath said, It profiteth a man nothing that he should delight himself with God. |
| 34:10 | Therefore hearken to me, ye men of understanding: far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and from the Almighty, that he should commit iniquity. |
| 34:11 | For the work of a man he shall render to him, and cause every man to find according to his ways. |
| 34:12 | Yes, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment. |
| 34:13 | Who hath given him a charge over the earth? or who hath disposed the whole world? |
| 34:14 | If he should set his heart upon man, if he should gather to himself his spirit and his breath; |
| 34:15 | All flesh would perish together, and man would turn again to dust. |
| 34:16 | If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words. |
| 34:17 | Shall even he that hateth right govern? and wilt thou condemn him that is most just? |
| 34:18 | Is it fit to say to a king, Thou art wicked? and to princes, Ye are ungodly? |
| 34:19 | How much less to him that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich more than the poor? for they all are the work of his hands. |
| 34:20 | In a moment they shall die, and the people shall be troubled at midnight, and pass away: and the mighty shall be taken away without hand. |
| 34:21 | For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings. |
| 34:22 | There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves. |
| 34:23 | For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God. |
| 34:24 | He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead. |
| 34:25 | Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed. |
| 34:26 | He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others; |
| 34:27 | Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways: |
| 34:28 | So that they cause the cry of the poor to come to him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. |
| 34:29 | When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: |
| 34:30 | That the hypocrite may not reign, lest the people should be ensnared. |
| 34:31 | Surely it is meet to be said to God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more: |
| 34:32 | That which I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more. |
| 34:33 | Should it be according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou shalt refuse, or whether thou shalt choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest. |
| 34:34 | Let men of understanding tell me, and let a wise man hearken to me. |
| 34:35 | Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were without wisdom. |
| 34:36 | My desire is that Job may be tried to the end, because of his answers for wicked men. |
| 34:37 | For he addeth rebellion to his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God. |
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.
