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