Philemon:1:8-25
ylt@Philemon:1:8 @Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit --
ylt@Philemon:1:9 @because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ;
ylt@Philemon:1:10 @I entreat thee concerning my child -- whom I did beget in my bonds -- Onesimus,
ylt@Philemon:1:11 @who once was to thee unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to thee,
ylt@Philemon:1:12 @whom I did send again, and thou him (that is, my own bowels) receive,
ylt@Philemon:1:13 @whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news,
ylt@Philemon:1:14 @and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness,
ylt@Philemon:1:15 @for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him,
ylt@Philemon:1:16 @no more as a servant, but above a servant -- a brother beloved, especially to me, and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord!
ylt@Philemon:1:17 @If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me,
ylt@Philemon:1:18 @and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning;
ylt@Philemon:1:19 @I, Paul did write with my hand, I -- I will repay; that I may not say that also thyself, besides, to me thou dost owe.
ylt@Philemon:1:20 @Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord;
ylt@Philemon:1:21 @having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do;
ylt@Philemon:1:22 @and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.
ylt@Philemon:1:23 @Salute thee doth Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,)
ylt@Philemon:1:24 @Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen!
ylt@Philemon:1:25 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with your spirit! Amen.
