Philemon 1
- 1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our dear helper in the faith,
- 2 And to Apphia, our sister, and to Archippus, our brother in God's army, and to the church in your house:
- 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
- 4 I give praise to God at all times and make prayer for you,
- 5 Hearing of the love and the faith which you have to the Lord Jesus and to all the saints;
- 6 That the faith which you have in common with them may be working with power, in the knowledge of every good thing in you, for Christ.
- 7 For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother.
- 8 And so, though I might, in the name of Christ, give you orders to do what is right,
- 9 Still, because of love, in place of an order, I make a request to you, I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner of Christ Jesus:
- 10 My request is for my child Onesimus, the child of my chains,
- 11 Who in the past was of no profit to you, but now is of profit to you and to me:
- 12 Whom I have sent back to you, him who is my very heart:
- 13 Though my desire was to keep him with me, to be my servant in the chains of the good news, in your place:
- 14 But without your approval I would do nothing; so that your good works might not be forced, but done freely from your heart.
- 15 For it is possible that for this reason he was parted from you for a time, so that you might have him for ever;
- 16 No longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother, very dear to me specially, but much more to you, in the flesh as well as in the Lord.
- 17 If then you take me to be your friend and brother, take him in as myself.
- 18 If he has done you any wrong or is in debt to you for anything, put it to my account.
- 19 I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life.
- 20 So brother, let me have joy of you in the Lord: give new life to my heart in Christ.
- 21 Being certain that you will do my desire, I am writing to you, in the knowledge that you will do even more than I say.
- 22 And make a room ready for me; for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be given to you.
- 23 Epaphras, my brother-prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you his love;
- 24 And so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my brother-workers.
- 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. So be it.
