Noah Webster's Bible 1833
1:1 | Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father, and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
1:2 | We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; |
1:3 | Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; |
1:4 | Knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election. |
1:5 | For our gospel came not to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake. |
1:6 | And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit: |
1:7 | So that ye were examples to all that believe, in Macedonia and Achaia. |
1:8 | For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing. |
1:9 | For they themselves show of us what manner of entrance we had to you, and how ye turned to God from idols, to serve the living and true God; |
1:10 | And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, who delivered us from the wrath to come. |
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.
