Noah Webster's Bible 1833
58:1 | To the chief Musician, Al-taschith, Michtam of David. Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men? |
58:2 | Yes, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth. |
58:3 | The wicked are estranged from their birth: they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies. |
58:4 | Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; |
58:5 | Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely. |
58:6 | Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD. |
58:7 | Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces. |
58:8 | As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun. |
58:9 | Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath. |
58:10 | The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked. |
58:11 | So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth. |
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.
