Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 139:1 | To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. |
| 139:2 | Thou knowest my down-sitting and my up rising, thou understandest my thought afar off. |
| 139:3 | Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. |
| 139:4 | For there is not a word on my tongue, but lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. |
| 139:5 | Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thy hand upon me. |
| 139:6 | Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain to it. |
| 139:7 | Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? |
| 139:8 | If I ascend into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. |
| 139:9 | If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; |
| 139:10 | Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. |
| 139:11 | If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. |
| 139:12 | Yes, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee. |
| 139:13 | For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. |
| 139:14 | I will praise thee: for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: wonderful are thy works; and that my soul well knoweth. |
| 139:15 | My substance was not hid from thee when I was made in secret, and curiously formed in the lowest parts of the earth. |
| 139:16 | Thy eyes saw my substance, yet being imperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. |
| 139:17 | How precious also are thy thoughts to me, O God! how great is the sum of them! |
| 139:18 | If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee. |
| 139:19 | Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men. |
| 139:20 | For they speak against thee wickedly, and thy enemies take thy name in vain. |
| 139:21 | Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? |
| 139:22 | I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them my enemies. |
| 139:23 | Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts: |
| 139:24 | And see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. |
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.
