Noah Webster's Bible 1833

   

7:1Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law) that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
7:2For the woman who hath a husband, is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband is dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
7:3So then, if while her husband liveth, she is married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband is dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
7:4Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit to God.
7:5For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit to death:
7:6But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead by which we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
7:7What shall we say then? Is the law sin? By no means. No, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
7:8But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
7:9For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
7:10And the commandment which was ordained to life, I found to be to death.
7:11For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
7:12Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
7:13Was then that which is good made death to me? By no means. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
7:14For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
7:15For that which I do, I allow not: for what I would, that I do not; but what I hate, that I do.
7:16If then I do that which I would not, I consent to the law that it is good.
7:17Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
7:18For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good, I find not.
7:19For the good that I would, I do not; but the evil which I would not, that I do.
7:20Now if I do that which I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
7:21I find then a law, that when I would do good, evil is present with me.
7:22For I delight in the law of God, after the inward man:
7:23But I see another law in my members warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
7:24O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
7:25I thank God, through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

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.
