Noah Webster's Bible 1833
4:1 | From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even from your lusts that war in your members? |
4:2 | Ye lust and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. |
4:3 | Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. |
4:4 | Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. |
4:5 | Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? |
4:6 | But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble. |
4:7 | Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. |
4:8 | Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners, and purify your hearts, ye double-minded. |
4:9 | Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. |
4:10 | Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will lift you up. |
4:11 | Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. |
4:12 | There is one lawgiver, who is able to save, and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another? |
4:13 | Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy, and sell, and get gain: |
4:14 | Whereas ye know not what will be on the morrow: For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. |
4:15 | Instead of that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. |
4:16 | But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil. |
4:17 | Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is 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.
