Book 57 Philemon001:001 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,001:002 to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus, our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house:001:003 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.001:004 I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,001:005 hearing of your love, and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints;001:006 that the fellowship of your faith may become effective, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.001:007 For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.001:008 Therefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,001:009 yet for love's sake I rather beg, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.001:010 I beg you for my child, whom I have become the father of in my chains, Onesimus,{Onesimus means "useful."}001:011 who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.001:012 I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,001:013 whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.001:014 But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.001:015 For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while, that you would have him forever,001:016 no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.001:017 If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.001:018 But if he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, put that to my account.001:019 I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).001:020 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.001:021 Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.001:022 Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.001:023 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,001:024 as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.001:025 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
