Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 39:1 | To the chief Musician, even to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me. |
| 39:2 | I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred. |
| 39:3 | My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then I spoke with my tongue. |
| 39:4 | LORD, make me to know my end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. |
| 39:5 | Behold, thou hast made my days as a hand-breadth; and my age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah. |
| 39:6 | Surely every man walketh in a vain show: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them. |
| 39:7 | And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee. |
| 39:8 | Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish. |
| 39:9 | I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it. |
| 39:10 | Remove thy stroke away from me; I am consumed by the blow of thy hand. |
| 39:11 | When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah. |
| 39:12 | Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear to my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were. |
| 39:13 | O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more. |
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.
