- 1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved friend, and fellow laborer,
- 2 to our beloved Apphia, 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.
- 4 I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers,
- 5 hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
- 6 that the sharing of your faith may become effectual by acknowledging every good thing that is in you in Christ Jesus.
- 7 Because, we have great joy and consolation in your love, because, the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by you, brother.
- 8 Therefore, although I might be very bold in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
- 9 yet for love’s sake I rather make request of you, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ:
- 10 I make request of you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten while in my chains,
- 11 who was formerly unprofitable to you, but is now profitable to you and to me.
- 12 Whom I have sent again. Therefore you receive him, that is, my own heart,
- 13 whom I would have kept with me, that in your stead, he might have ministered to me in the chains of the gospel.
- 14 But I did not want to do anything without your consent, that your goodness might not be of obligation, but voluntary.
- 15 Because, perhaps he departed for a season for this reason, that you might receive him forever,
- 16 not now as a servant, but above a servant, a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord?
- 17 If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.
- 18 If he has wronged you, or owes you anything, put that on my account.
- 19 I Paul have written this with my own hand, I will repay it, not to mention to you how you also owe to me even your own lives.
- 20 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord.
- 21 Having confidence in your obedience, I wrote to you, knowing that you will also do even more than I say.
- [[Philemon 1:22 (PKJV) |22]* 1 God, who at various times and in diverse ways spoke in time past to the fathers through the prophets,
- 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the ages;
- 3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
- 4 having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
- 5 Because, to which of the angels did He ever say: “You are My Son, today I have begotten You”? And again: “I will be to Him a Father, and He will be to Me a Son”?
- 6 But when He again brings the firstborn into the world, He says: “Let all the angels of God worship Him.”
- 7 And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits and His ministers a flame of fire.”
- 8 But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
- 9 You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity; Therefore God, even Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your companions.”
- 10 And: “You, LORD, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of Your hands.
- 11 They will perish, but You remain; and they will all grow old like clothing;
- 12 And like a cloak You will fold them up, and they will be changed. But You are the same, and Your years will not fail.”
- 13 But to which of the angels has He ever said: “Sit at My right hand, until I make Your enemies Your footstool”?
- 14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?] But meanwhile prepare me a guest room also, because I trust that through the prayers of you all I shall be given to all of you.
- 23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,
- 24 also Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow laborers.
- 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.
