    Proverbs 13
    •   A wise son [heareth] his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.
    •   A man shall eat good by the fruit of [his] mouth: but the soul of the transgressors [shall eat] violence.
    •   He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: [but] he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
    •   The soul of the sluggard desireth, and [hath] nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

    •   Righteousness keepeth [him that is] upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
    •   There is that maketh himself rich, yet [hath] nothing: [there is] that maketh himself poor, yet [hath] great riches.

    • 21   Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repaid.
    • 22   A good [man] leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner [is] laid up for the just.
    • 23   Much food [is in] the tillage of the poor: but there is [that is] destroyed for want of judgment.
    • 24   He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

    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.
