Phrases originating 400 years ago in
the King James Bible:

East of Eden
Pour out your heart
The skin of my teeth
From time to time
Take root
At their wit's end
Gave up the ghost
Feet of clay
A fly in the ointment
A drop in the bucket
The root of the matter
The powers that be
Fell flat on his face
Turned the world upside down
Put words in my mouth
Salt of the earth
Out of the mouth of babes
The blind leading the blind
Fought the good fight
