prop'-er: For the King James Version "proper" (child), inHeb 11:23, the Revised Version (British and American) substitutes "goodly"; in1Ch 29:3;1Co 7:7, the Revised Version (British and American) "own" is employed, and for the too emphatic "their proper tongue" inAc 1:19"their language" is written. But none of the King James Version forms are really obsolete.
