Noah Webster's Bible 1833

   

5:1The elders who are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
5:2Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight of it, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but from a ready mind;
5:3Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
5:4And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
5:5Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves to the elder. Yes, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
5:6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
5:7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
5:8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
5:9Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
5:10But the God of all grace, who hath called us to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you.
5:11To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
5:12By Silvanus, a faithful brother to you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which ye stand.
5:13The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Mark my son.
5:14Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. 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.
