Noah Webster's Bible 1833
11:1 | And it came to pass when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities. |
11:2 | Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples, |
11:3 | And said to him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another? |
11:4 | Jesus answered and said to them, Go and show John again those things which ye hear and see: |
11:5 | The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel preached to them. |
11:6 | And blessed is he to whom I shall not be the cause of his falling into sin. |
11:7 | And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken with the wind? |
11:8 | But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses. |
11:9 | But what went ye out to see? A prophet? yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet. |
11:10 | For this is he concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee. |
11:11 | Verily, I say to you, among them that are born of women, there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding, he that is least in the kingdom of heaven, is greater than he. |
11:12 | And from the days of John the Baptist, until now, the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. |
11:13 | For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. |
11:14 | And if ye will receive it, this is Elijah who was to come. |
11:15 | He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. |
11:16 | But to what shall I liken this generation? It is like to children sitting in the markets, and calling to their fellows, |
11:17 | And saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; We have mourned to you, and ye have not lamented. |
11:18 | For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a demon. |
11:19 | The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, a man gluttonous, and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified by her children. |
11:20 | Then he began to upbraid the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they repented not. |
11:21 | Woe to thee, Chorazin; woe to thee, Bethsaida: for if the mighty works which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. |
11:22 | But I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you. |
11:23 | And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. |
11:24 | But I say to you, that it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, in the day of judgment, than for thee. |
11:25 | At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes. |
11:26 | Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. |
11:27 | All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. |
11:28 | Come to me, all ye that labor, and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. |
11:29 | Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me: for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest to your souls. |
11:30 | For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. |
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.
