  5. PHILEMON 1-3 PAUL, A PRISONER OF CHRIST JESUS, AND TIMOTHY OUR BROTHER, TO PHILEMON OUR DEAR FRIEND AND FELLOW WORKER, TO APPHIA OUR SISTER, TO ARCHIPPUS OUR FELLOW SOLDIER AND TO THE CHURCH THAT MEETS IN YOUR HOME. GRACE TO YOU AND PEACE FROM GOD OUR FATHER AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.

  6. PHILEMON 7-10 YOUR LOVE HAS GIVEN ME GREAT JOY AND ENCOURAGEMENT, BECAUSE YOU, BROTHER, HAVE REFRESHED THE HEARTS OF THE SAINTS. THEREFORE, ALTHOUGH IN CHRIST I COULD BE BOLD AND ORDER YOU TO DO WHAT YOU OUGHT TO DO, YET I APPEAL TO YOU ON THE BASIS OF LOVE. I THEN, AS PAUL-AN OLD MAN AND NOW ALSO A PRISONER OF CHRIST JESUS- I APPEAL TO YOU FOR MY SON ONESIMUS, WHO BECAME MY SON WHILE I WAS IN CHAINS.

  7. PHILEMON 11-16 FORMERLYHE WAS USELESS TO YOU, BUT NOWHE HAS BECOME USEFULBOTH TO YOU AND TO ME. I AM SENDING HIM-WHO IS MY VERY HEART-BACK TO YOU.I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO KEEP HIM WITH ME SO THAT HE COULD TAKE YOUR PLACE IN HELPING ME WHILE I AM IN CHAINS FOR THE GOSPEL. BUT I DID NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT, SO THAT ANY FAVOR YOU DO WILL BE SPONTANEOUS AND NOT FORCED. PERHAPS THE REASON HE WAS SEPARATED FROM YOU FOR A LITTLE WHILE WAS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE HIM BACK FOR GOOD- NO LONGER AS A SLAVE, BUT BETTER THAN A SLAVE, AS A DEAR BROTHER. HE IS VERY DEAR TO ME BUT EVEN DEARER TO YOU, BOTH AS A MAN AND AS A BROTHER IN THE LORD.
