The Holy Bible - Weymouth New Testament (The New Testament in Modern Speech) [OPTIMIZED FOR NOOK]

The Weymouth New Testament (aka "The New Testament in Modern Speech" and "The Modern Speech New Testament") is a translation with modernized English from the 19th century using the text from the Resultant Greek Testament and the idioms used in it.

Richard Francis Weymouth's popular version of the English New Testament was first created in 1903, and has sold millions of copies around the world. Weymouth's goal was to show how inspired writer would have expressed themselves and described the events of the New Testament, as if they were alive and well in the 19th and 20th centuries. In doing so, he has succeeded in rendering it into a dignified modern English edition without ecclesiastical nor doctrinal bias making it desirable to Christian readers of all denominations.
