fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timotheus the brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker, |
| 2 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in thy house: |
| 3 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ! |
| 4 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData I give thanks to my God, always making mention of thee in my prayers, |
| 5 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData hearing of thy love and faith that thou hast unto the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, |
| 6 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData that the fellowship of thy faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that `is' in you toward Christ Jesus; |
| 7 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for we have much joy and comfort in thy love, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. |
| 8 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit -- |
| 9 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ; |
| 10 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData I entreat thee concerning my child -- whom I did beget in my bonds -- Onesimus, |
| 11 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData who once was to thee unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to thee, |
| 12 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData whom I did send again, and thou him (that is, my own bowels) receive, |
| 13 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news, |
| 14 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness, |
| 15 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him, |
| 16 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData 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! |
| 17 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me, |
| 18 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning; |
| 19 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData 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. |
| 20 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord; |
| 21 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do; |
| 22 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you. |
| 23 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Salute thee doth Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,) |
| 24 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen! |
| 25 |
fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData fjrigjwwe9r2Younhs_EN_Bible:TextData The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ `is' with your spirit! Amen. |
