Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 10:1 | Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh to you, O house of Israel: |
| 10:2 | Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. |
| 10:3 | For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. |
| 10:4 | They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it may not move. |
| 10:5 | They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good. |
| 10:6 | Forasmuch as there is none like to thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might. |
| 10:7 | Who would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like to thee. |
| 10:8 | But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities. |
| 10:9 | Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of skillful men. |
| 10:10 | But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. |
| 10:11 | Thus shall ye say to them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens. |
| 10:12 | He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. |
| 10:13 | When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures. |
| 10:14 | Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. |
| 10:15 | They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. |
| 10:16 | The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: The LORD of hosts is his name. |
| 10:17 | Gather up thy wares out of the land, O inhabitant of the fortress. |
| 10:18 | For thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this once, and will distress them that they may find it so. |
| 10:19 | Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it. |
| 10:20 | My tabernacle is laid waste, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone from me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth my tent any more, and to set up my curtains. |
| 10:21 | For the pastors have become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered. |
| 10:22 | Behold, the sound of the noise is come, and a great commotion from the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons. |
| 10:23 | O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps. |
| 10:24 | O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thy anger, lest thou bring me to nothing. |
| 10:25 | Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate. |
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.
