    Psalms 55
    • 1   To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Maschil, [A Psalm] of David. Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not thyself from my supplication.
    • 2   Attend to me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;
    • 3   Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.
    • 4   My heart is severely pained within me: and the terrors of death have fallen upon me.
    • 5   Fearfulness and trembling have come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.
    • 6   And I said, O that I had wings like a dove! [for then] I would fly away, and be at rest.
    • 7   Lo, [then] I would wander far off, [and] remain in the wilderness. Selah.
    • 8   I would hasten my escape from the windy storm [and] tempest.
    • 9   Destroy, O Lord, [and] divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
    • 10   Day and night they go about it upon its walls: mischief also and sorrow [are] in the midst of it.
    • 11   Wickedness [is] in the midst of it: deceit and guile depart not from her streets.
    • 12   For [it was] not an enemy [that] reproached me; then I could have borne [it]: neither [was it] he that hated me [that] magnified [himself] against me; then I would have hid myself from him:
    • 13   But [it was] thou, a man my equal, my guide, and my acquaintance.
    • 14   We took sweet counsel together, [and] walked to the house of God in company.
    • 15   Let death seize upon them, [and] let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness [is] in their dwellings, [and] among them.
    • 16   As for me, I will call upon God: and the LORD will save me.
    • 17   Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he will hear my voice.
    • 18   He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle [that was] against me: for there were many with me.
    • 19   God will hear and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
    • 20   He hath put forth his hands against such as are at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.
    • 21   [The words] of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war [was] in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet [were] they drawn swords.
    • 22   Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he will sustain thee: he will never suffer the righteous to be moved.
    • 23   But thou, O God, wilt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee.

    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.
