Noah Webster's Bible 1833
| 1:1 | Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is according to godliness; |
| 1:2 | In hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before the world began; |
| 1:3 | But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior; |
| 1:4 | To Titus, my own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior. |
| 1:5 | For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou shouldst set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee: |
| 1:6 | If any is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not accused of riot, or disorderly. |
| 1:7 | For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; |
| 1:8 | But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; |
| 1:9 | Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. |
| 1:10 | For there are many disorderly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: |
| 1:11 | Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of sordid gain. |
| 1:12 | One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. |
| 1:13 | This testimony is true: wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; |
| 1:14 | Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men that turn from the truth. |
| 1:15 | To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. |
| 1:16 | They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate. |
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.
