Philemon - Chapter: 1

>
1:1Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
1:2And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:
1:3Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:4I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
1:5Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
1:6That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
1:7For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
1:8Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
1:9Yet for love's sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
1:10I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
1:11Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
1:12Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
1:13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
1:14But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
1:15For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
1:16Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
1:17If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
1:18If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;
1:19I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
1:20Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
1:21Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
1:22But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
1:23There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;
1:24Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.
1:25The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.

 

1:1Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved friend, and fellow laborer,
1:2to our beloved Apphia, Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house:
1:3Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:4I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers,
1:5hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
1:6that the sharing of your faith may become effectual by acknowledging every good thing that is in you in Christ Jesus.
1:7Because, we have great joy and consolation in your love, because, the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by you, brother.
1:8Therefore, although I could be very bold in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
1:9yet for love's sake I rather make request of you, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ:
1:10I make request of you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten while in my chains,
1:11who was formerly unprofitable to you, but is now profitable to you and to me.
1:12Whom I have sent again. Therefore you receive him, that is, my own heart,
1:13whom I would have kept with me, that in your position, he might have ministered to me in the chains of the gospel.
1:14But I did not want to do anything without your consent, that your goodness might not be of obligation, but voluntary.
1:15Because, perhaps he departed for a season for this reason, that you might receive him forever,
1:16not now as a servant, but more than a servant, a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord?
1:17If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.
1:18If he has wronged you, or owes you anything, put that on my account.
1:19I Paul have written this with my own hand, I will repay it, not to mention to you how you also owe to me even your own lives.
1:20Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord.
1:21Having confidence in your obedience, I wrote to you, knowing that you will also do even more than I say.
1:22But, meanwhile, prepare for me a guest room also, because I trust that through the prayers of you all I shall be given to you all.
1:23Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,
1:24also Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow laborers.
1:25The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
