Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 102:1 | A Prayer of the afflicted, when he is overwhelmed, and poureth out his complaint before the LORD. Hear my prayer, O LORD, and let my cry come to thee. |
| 102:2 | Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thy ear to me: in the day when I call, answer me speedily. |
| 102:3 | For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth. |
| 102:4 | My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread. |
| 102:5 | By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones cleave to my skin. |
| 102:6 | I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert. |
| 102:7 | I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top. |
| 102:8 | My enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are enraged against me are sworn against me. |
| 102:9 | For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping, |
| 102:10 | Because of thy indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down. |
| 102:11 | My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass. |
| 102:12 | But thou, O LORD, shalt endure for ever; and thy remembrance to all generations. |
| 102:13 | Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favor her, yes, the set time, is come. |
| 102:14 | For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favor the dust thereof. |
| 102:15 | So the heathen shall fear the name of the LORD: and all the kings of the earth thy glory. |
| 102:16 | When the LORD shall build up Zion, he will appear in his glory. |
| 102:17 | He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer. |
| 102:18 | This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD. |
| 102:19 | For he hath looked down from the hight of his sanctuary; from heaven hath the LORD beheld the earth; |
| 102:20 | To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death; |
| 102:21 | To declare the name of the LORD in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem; |
| 102:22 | When the people are assembled, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD. |
| 102:23 | He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days. |
| 102:24 | I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations. |
| 102:25 | Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands. |
| 102:26 | They shall perish, but thou wilt endure: yes, all of them shall grow old like a garment; as a vesture wilt thou change them, and they shall be changed: |
| 102:27 | But thou art the same, and thy years will have no end. |
| 102:28 | The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before 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.
