Noah Webster's Bible 1833

   

8:1Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
8:2How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
8:3Doth God pervert judgment; or doth the Almighty pervert justice?
8:4If thy children have sinned against him, and he hath cast them away for their transgression;
8:5If thou wouldst seek to God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
8:6If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
8:7Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end would greatly increase.
8:8For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:
8:9(For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)
8:10Will they not teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?
8:11Can the rush grow without mire? can the flag grow without water?
8:12Whilst it is yet in its greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.
8:13So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:
8:14Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.
8:15He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
8:16He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
8:17His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.
8:18If he shall destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.
8:19Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
8:20Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:
8:21Till he shall fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.
8:22They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to naught.

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.
