Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 8:1 | Jesus went to the mount of Olives: |
| 8:2 | And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down and taught them. |
| 8:3 | And the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman taken in adultery: and when they had set her in the midst, |
| 8:4 | They say to him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. |
| 8:5 | Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned; but what sayest thou? |
| 8:6 | This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. |
| 8:7 | So when they continued asking him, he raised himself, and said to them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. |
| 8:8 | And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. |
| 8:9 | And they who heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even to the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. |
| 8:10 | When Jesus had raised himself, and saw none but the woman, he said to her, Woman, where are those thy accusers? hath no man condemned thee? |
| 8:11 | She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. |
| 8:12 | Then Jesus spoke again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. |
| 8:13 | The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou testifiest concerning thyself; thy testimony is not true. |
| 8:14 | Jesus answered and said to them, Though I testify concerning myself, yet my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. |
| 8:15 | Ye judge after the flesh, I judge no man. |
| 8:16 | And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. |
| 8:17 | It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. |
| 8:18 | I am one that testifieth concerning myself; and the Father that sent me, testifieth concerning me. |
| 8:19 | Then said they to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also. |
| 8:20 | These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, for his hour was not yet come. |
| 8:21 | Then said Jesus again to them, I am going away, and ye will seek me, and will die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come. |
| 8:22 | Then said the Jews, will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come. |
| 8:23 | And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. |
| 8:24 | I said therefore to you, that ye will die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye will die in your sins. |
| 8:25 | Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith to them, Even the same that I said to you from the beginning. |
| 8:26 | I have many things to say, and to judge of you: but he that sent me, is true: and I speak to the world those things which I have heard from him. |
| 8:27 | They understood not that he spoke to them concerning the Father. |
| 8:28 | Then said Jesus to them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. |
| 8:29 | And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. |
| 8:30 | As he spoke these words, many believed on him. |
| 8:31 | Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed on him, If ye continue in my word, ye are my disciples indeed; |
| 8:32 | And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. |
| 8:33 | They answered him, We are Abraham's offspring, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? |
| 8:34 | Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Whoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin. |
| 8:35 | And the servant abideth not in the house for ever, but the Son abideth for ever. |
| 8:36 | If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. |
| 8:37 | I know that ye are Abraham's offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. |
| 8:38 | I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. |
| 8:39 | They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. |
| 8:40 | But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham. |
| 8:41 | Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. |
| 8:42 | Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. |
| 8:43 | Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. |
| 8:44 | Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do: he was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. |
| 8:45 | And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. |
| 8:46 | Which of you convicteth me of sin? And if I speak the truth, why do ye not believe me? |
| 8:47 | He that is of God, heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. |
| 8:48 | Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon? |
| 8:49 | Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and ye dishonor me. |
| 8:50 | And I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. |
| 8:51 | Verily, verily, I say to you, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never see death. |
| 8:52 | Then said the Jews to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never taste death. |
| 8:53 | Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? |
| 8:54 | Jesus answered, If I honor myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that honoreth me, of whom ye say, that he is your God: |
| 8:55 | Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I should be a liar like you: but I know him, and keep his saying. |
| 8:56 | Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. |
| 8:57 | Then said the Jews to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? |
| 8:58 | Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am. |
| 8:59 | Then they took up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. |
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.
