"Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Philemon" by Richard Francis Weymouth is a Bible translation published in 1903. Weymouth sought to express how the New Testament writers would have communicated had they been writing in nineteenth-century English. Based on his compilation of major Greek text editions, this translation of Philemon was intended as a "succinct and compressed running commentary" to be used alongside traditional Bible versions, making ancient scripture accessible through contemporary language.
