    Proverbs 7
    •   My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
    •   Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thy eye.
    •   Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thy heart.
    •   Say to wisdom, Thou [art] my sister; and call understanding [thy] kinswoman:
    •   That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger [which] flattereth with her words.
    •   For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
    •   And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
    •   Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house.
    •   In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
    • 10   And behold, there met him a woman [with] the attire of a harlot, and subtil of heart.
    • 11   (She [is] loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
    • 12   Now [is she] without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
    • 13   So she caught him, and kissed him, [and] with an impudent face said to him,
    • 14   [I have] peace-offerings with me; this day have I paid my vows.
    • 15   Therefore I came forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
    • 16   I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved [works], with fine linen of Egypt.
    • 17   I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
    • 18   Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.
    • 19   For the good-man [is] not at home, he is gone a long journey:
    • 20   He hath taken a bag of money with him, [and] will come home at the day appointed.
    • 21   With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she impelled him.
    • 22   He goeth after her quickly, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
    • 23   Till a dart striketh through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it [is] for his life.
    • 24   Now therefore hearken to me, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
    • 25   Let not thy heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
    • 26   For she hath cast down many wounded: yes, many strong [men] have been slain by her.
    • 27   Her house [is] the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.

    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.
