    1:1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker,

    1:2 and to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow- soldier, and to the church in thy house:

    1:3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    1:4 I thank my God always, making mention of thee in my prayers,

    1:5 hearing of thy love, and of the faith which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints;

    1:6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become effectual, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in you, unto Christ.

    1:7 For I had much joy and comfort in thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother.

    1:8 Wherefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to enjoin thee that which is befitting,

    1:9 yet for love's sake I rather beseech, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now a prisoner also of Christ Jesus:

    1:10 I beseech thee for my child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus,

    1:11 who once was unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable to thee and to me:

    1:12 whom I have sent back to thee in his own person, that is, my very heart:

    1:13 whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

    1:14 but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will.

    1:15 For perhaps he was therefore parted [from thee] for a season, that thou shouldest have him for ever;

    1:16 no longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much rather to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

    1:17 If then thou countest me a partner, receive him as myself.

    1:18 But if he hath wronged the at all, or oweth [thee] aught, put that to mine account;

    1:19 I Paul write it with mine own hand, I will repay it: that I say not unto thee that thou owest to me even thine own self besides.

    1:20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my heart in Christ.

    1:21 Having confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say.

    1:22 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted unto you.

    1:23 Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus, saluteth thee;

    1:24 [and so do] Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow- workers.

    1:25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
