Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 31:1 | To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. |
| 31:2 | Bow down thy ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for a house of defense to save me. |
| 31:3 | For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. |
| 31:4 | Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength. |
| 31:5 | Into thy hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth. |
| 31:6 | I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD. |
| 31:7 | I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; |
| 31:8 | And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my foot in a large room. |
| 31:9 | Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in trouble: my eye is consumed with grief, yes, my soul and my belly. |
| 31:10 | For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of my iniquity, and my bones are consumed. |
| 31:11 | I was a reproach among all my enemies, but especially among my neighbors, and a fear to my acquaintance: they that saw me without fled from me. |
| 31:12 | I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. |
| 31:13 | For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. |
| 31:14 | But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God. |
| 31:15 | My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of my enemies, and from them that persecute me. |
| 31:16 | Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake. |
| 31:17 | Let me not be ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave. |
| 31:18 | Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. |
| 31:19 | Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! |
| 31:20 | Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. |
| 31:21 | Blessed be the LORD: for he hath showed me his wonderful kindness in a strong city. |
| 31:22 | For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thy eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried to thee. |
| 31:23 | O love the LORD, all ye his saints: for the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. |
| 31:24 | Be of good courage, and he will strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in 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.
