Philemon, Chapter 1

¹ Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy^a Lit theour brother, To Philemon our beloved brother and fellow worker, ² and to Apphia^b Lit theour sister, and to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house: ³ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.	1 Php 1:1 Eph 3:1 Gal 3:26 Co2 1:1 Col 1:1 Php 2:25 (Pmn 24) 2 Rom 16:1 Col 4:17 Php 2:25 Ti2 2:3 Rom 16:5 3 Rom 1:7
⁴ I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers, ⁵ because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the^c Or holy onessaints; ⁶ and I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective^d Or inthrough the knowledge of every good thing which is in you^e Lit toward Christfor Christ’s sake. ⁷ For I have come to have much joy and comfort in your love, because the^f Lit inward partshearts of the^g Or holy onessaints have been refreshed through you, brother.	4 Rom 1:8 5 Eph 1:15 Col 1:4 Th1 3:6 6 Php 1:9 Col 1:9 Col 3:10 7 Co2 7:4 Co2 7:13 Co1 16:18 Pmn 1:20
⁸ Therefore, though I have^h Lit muchenough confidence in Christ to order you to do what is proper, ⁹ yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you—since I am such a person as Paul,ⁱ Or an ambassadorthe aged, and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus—	8 Co2 3:12 Th1 2:6 Eph 5:4 9 Rom 12:1 Tit 2:2 Pmn 1:1 Gal 3:26 Ti1 1:12 Pmn 1:23
¹⁰ I appeal to you for my child^j I.e. usefulOnesimus, whom I have begotten in my^k Lit bondsimprisonment, ¹¹ who formerly was useless to you, but now is useful both to you and to me. ¹² I have sent him back to you in person, that is, sending my very heart, ¹³ whom I wished to keep with me, so that on your behalf he might minister to me in my^l Lit bondsimprisonment for the gospel; ¹⁴ but without your consent I did not want to do anything, so that your goodness would not be, in effect, by compulsion but of your own free will. ¹⁵ For perhaps he was for this reason separated from you for a while, that you would have him back forever, ¹⁶ no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.	10 Rom 12:1 Co1 4:14 Col 4:9 13 Php 1:7 Pmn 1:10 14 Co2 9:7 Pe1 5:2 15 Gen 45:5 Gen 45:8 16 Co1 7:22 Mat 23:8 Ti1 6:2 Eph 6:5 Col 3:22
¹⁷ If then you regard me a partner, accept him as you would me. ¹⁸ But if he has wronged you in any way or owes you anything, charge that to my account; ¹⁹ I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand, I will repay it (not to^m Lit saymention to you that you owe to me even your own self as well). ²⁰ Yes, brother, let me benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.	17 Co2 8:23 19 Co1 16:21 Co2 10:1 Gal 5:2 Co2 9:4 20 Pmn 1:7
²¹ Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, since I know that you will do even more than what I say.	21 Co2 2:3
²² At the same time also prepare me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I will be given to you.	22 Act 28:23 Php 1:25 Php 2:24 Co2 1:11 Act 27:24 Heb 13:19
²³ Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you, ²⁴ as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow workers.	23 Col 1:7 Col 4:12 Rom 16:7 Pmn 1:1 24 Act 12:12 Act 12:25 Act 15:37-39 Col 4:10 Act 19:29 Act 27:2 Col 4:10 Col 4:14 Ti2 4:10 Col 4:14 Ti2 4:10 Pmn 1:1
