Noah Webster's Bible 1833
4:1 | Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons; |
4:2 | Speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron; |
4:3 | Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by them who believe and know the truth. |
4:4 | For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if received with thanksgiving: |
4:5 | For it is sanctified by the word of God, and prayer. |
4:6 | If thou shalt put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou wilt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished by the words of faith and of good doctrine, to which thou hast attained. |
4:7 | But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather to godliness. |
4:8 | For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. |
4:9 | This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation. |
4:10 | For therefore we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God who is the Savior of all men, especially of those that believe. |
4:11 | These things command and teach. |
4:12 | Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in deportment, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. |
4:13 | Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. |
4:14 | Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. |
4:15 | Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. |
4:16 | Take heed to thyself and to thy doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou wilt both save thyself, and them that hear thee. |
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.
