Noah Webster's Bible 1833
23:1 | Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thy hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. |
23:2 | Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment: |
23:3 | Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause. |
23:4 | If thou shalt meet thy enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. |
23:5 | If thou shalt see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him. |
23:6 | Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause. |
23:7 | Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked. |
23:8 | And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous. |
23:9 | Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger; for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. |
23:10 | And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof: |
23:11 | But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy olive-yard. |
23:12 | Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thy ox and thy ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed. |
23:13 | And in all things that I have said to you be circumspect: and make no mention of the names of other gods, neither let it be heard from thy mouth. |
23:14 | Three times thou shalt keep a feast to me in the year. |
23:15 | Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:) |
23:16 | And the feast of harvest, the first-fruits of thy labors, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of in-gathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labors out of the field. |
23:17 | Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the Lord GOD. |
23:18 | Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning. |
23:19 | The first of the first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk. |
23:20 | Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared. |
23:21 | Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him. |
23:22 | But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy to thy enemies, and an adversary to thy adversaries. |
23:23 | For my Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in to the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites; and I will cut them off. |
23:24 | Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. |
23:25 | And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he will bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. |
23:26 | There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: I will complete the number of thy days. |
23:27 | I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thy enemies turn their backs to thee. |
23:28 | And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before thee. |
23:29 | I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land should become desolate, and the beast of the field should multiply against thee. |
23:30 | By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou shalt be increased and inherit the land. |
23:31 | And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee. |
23:32 | Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. |
23:33 | They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee to sin against me: for if thou shalt serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to thee. |
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.
