Noah Webster's Bible 1833
5:1 | But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write to you. |
5:2 | For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. |
5:3 | For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. |
5:4 | But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. |
5:5 | Ye are all children of light, and children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. |
5:6 | Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. |
5:7 | For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunken, are drunken in the night. |
5:8 | But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breast-plate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation. |
5:9 | For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, |
5:10 | Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. |
5:11 | Wherefore, comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. |
5:12 | And we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; |
5:13 | And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves. |
5:14 | Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are disorderly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the weak, be patient towards all men. |
5:15 | See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. |
5:16 | Rejoice evermore. |
5:17 | Pray without ceasing. |
5:18 | In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. |
5:19 | Quench not the spirit. |
5:20 | Despise not prophesyings. |
5:21 | Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. |
5:22 | Abstain from all appearance of evil. |
5:23 | And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
5:24 | Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. |
5:25 | Brethren, pray for us. |
5:26 | Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss. |
5:27 | I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read to all the holy brethren. |
5:28 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. |
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.
