"Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Matthew" by Richard Francis Weymouth is a translation published in 1903. Weymouth sought to reimagine how the Gospel writers would have expressed their accounts if writing in nineteenth-century English. Based on his carefully compiled Greek text, which synthesized readings from multiple scholarly editions, this translation aimed to serve as a running commentary alongside traditional versions. Edited posthumously by Ernest Hampden-Cook after Weymouth's death in 1902, it offers readers a fresh perspective on familiar scripture.
