Noah Webster's Bible 1833
13:1 | Let every soul be subject to the higher powers. For there is no power but from God: the powers that are, are ordained by God. |
13:2 | Whoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. |
13:3 | For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power; do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same: |
13:4 | For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou doest that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. |
13:5 | Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. |
13:6 | For, for this cause ye pay tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. |
13:7 | Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor. |
13:8 | Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. |
13:9 | For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there is any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. |
13:10 | Love worketh no ill to one's neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. |
13:11 | And this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. |
13:12 | The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. |
13:13 | Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. |
13:14 | But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the lusts of flesh. |
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.
