Noah Webster's Bible 1833
144:1 | A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my strength, who teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight; |
144:2 | My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me. |
144:3 | LORD, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him! |
144:4 | Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away. |
144:5 | Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. |
144:6 | Cast forth lightning, and scatter them: shoot thy arrows, and destroy them. |
144:7 | Send thy hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children; |
144:8 | Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood. |
144:9 | I will sing a new song to thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises to thee. |
144:10 | It is he that giveth salvation to kings: who delivereth David his servant from the hurtful sword. |
144:11 | Rid me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood: |
144:12 | That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; that our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace: |
144:13 | That our granaries may be full, affording all manner of store; that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets: |
144:14 | That our oxen may be strong to labor; that there be no breaking in, nor going out; that there be no complaining in our streets. |
144:15 | Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yes, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD. |
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.
