    Job 16
    •   Then Job answered and said,
    •   I have heard many such things: miserable comforters [are] ye all.
    •   Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
    •   I also could speak as ye [do]: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake my head at you.
    •   [But] I would strengthen you with my mouth and the moving of my lips should assuage [your grief].
    •   Though I speak, my grief is not assuaged: and [though] I forbear, what am I eased?
    •   But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.
    •   And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, [which] is a witness [against me]: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.
    •   He teareth [me] in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; my enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
    • 10   They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves against me.
    • 11   God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
    • 12   I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken [me] by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
    • 13   His archers encompass me; he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.
    • 14   He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.
    • 15   I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
    • 16   My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids [are] the shades of death;
    • 17   Not for [any] injustice in my hands: also my prayer [is] pure.
    • 18   O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.
    • 19   Also now, behold, my witness [is] in heaven, and my record [is] on high.
    • 20   My friends scorn me: [but] my eye poureth out [tears] to God.
    • 21   O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man [pleadeth] for his neighbor!
    • 22   When a few years are come, then I shall go the way [whence] I shall not return.

    Webster Bible Electronic Format.
    PUBLIC DOMAIN

    February 1992

    Beginning in July of 1991 the task of placing the Webster Bible text in electronic format began. The original purpose was to provide Larry Pierce, who produces the On-Line Bible program, with a more modern *public domain* text, similar in content and style to the AV but with a grammar that would provide better comprehension in todays English.

    I plan on maintaining an accurate copy of the Webster text. Anyone finding an error should contact me; Anyone desiring to obtain the latest, most correct text, can find it on the Bible Foundation BBS, or can contact me in the following methods:

    I would like to thank the Bible Foundation not only for scanning nearly the entire Webster Bible but for encouraging me to undertake this monumental work; particularly around page 20 when I realized what I had gotten myself into. Special thanks to Jerry Kingery of the Bible Foundation for scanning, and Jerry Hastings for doing some preliminary scan cleaning and making the texts available on the BBS.
