Noah Webster's Bible 1833

   

14:1O Israel, return to the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thy iniquity.
14:2Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say to him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.
14:3Ashur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
14:4I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for my anger is turned away from him.
14:5I will be as the dew to Israel: he shall grow as the lily and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
14:6His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive-tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
14:7They that dwell under his shade shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent of it shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
14:8Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir-tree. From me is thy fruit found.
14:9Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the LORD are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall in them.

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.
