"Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Preface and Introductions by Weymouth" by Richard Francis Weymouth is a Bible translation published in 1903. This rendering of the New Testament reimagines how the original writers might have expressed their accounts in nineteenth-century English. Based on Weymouth's compilation of major Greek text editions, the translation aims to provide a compressed running commentary alongside traditional versions. Prepared posthumously by his secretary and revised through multiple editions, it offers readers a modernized encounter with ancient scripture.
