Resteth…..Is That a Word?

This past week as I was studying and putting together my lesson to give in Relief Society, I came across a quote I was having a hard time understanding.  This is the part of the quote I was having trouble with: “And this condemnation resteth upon the children of Zion.”  Re-steth, re-steth, re-steth……you don’t know how many times I read this word over and over again trying to figure out what re-steth meant.  I thought to myself….wow….I have never heard of the word re-steth, before.  Even in Microsoft Office Word, the word resteth had the little squiggly lines underneath of it, telling me I had a misspelled word and it was not a word recognized by the Microsoft program.
Well, this goes to show you as proof, that me, being a red-head, will be the first to tell you that red roots grow deep and I was totally having a DUH moment.
It wasn’t until the next day that it dawned on me that the word was RESTETH.  I was reading the word as if the “e” was a long vowel instead of a short vowel sound, when actually it was just plain old resteth (rest-eth).
Ever have one of those days?…………Too funny.  It was just one of those precious DUH moments that I needed to post about.
