    Proverbs 9
    • 1   Wisdom hath built her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
    • 2   She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
    • 3   She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
    • 4   Whoever [is] simple, let him turn in hither: [as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
    • 5   Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine [which] I have mingled.
    • 6   Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
    • 7   He that reproveth a scorner, getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked [man getteth] himself a blot.
    • 8   Reprove not a scorner, lest he shall hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
    • 9   Give [instruction] to a wise [man], and he will be yet wiser: teach a just [man], and he will increase in learning.
    • 10   The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.
    • 11   For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
    • 12   If thou art wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but [if] thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear [it].
    • 13   A foolish woman [is] clamorous: [she is] simple, and knoweth nothing.
    • 14   For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
    • 15   To call passengers who go right on their ways:
    • 16   Whoever [is] simple, let him turn in hither: and [as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
    • 17   Stolen waters are sweet, and bread [eaten] in secret is pleasant.
    • 18   But he knoweth not that the dead [are] there; [and that] her guests [are] in the depths of hell.

    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.
