Philemon 1:8
And so, though I might, in the name of Christ, give you orders to do what is right,
Philemon 1:9
Still, because of love, in place of an order, I make a request to you, I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner of Christ Jesus:
Philemon 1:10
My request is for my child Onesimus, the child of my chains,
Philemon 1:11
Who in the past was of no profit to you, but now is of profit to you and to me:
Philemon 1:13
Though my desire was to keep him with me, to be my servant in the chains of the good news, in your place:
Philemon 1:17
If then you take me to be your friend and brother, take him in as myself.
Philemon 1:19
I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life.
Ephesians 6:20
For which I am a representative in chains, and that I may say without fear the things which it is right for me to say.

That the faith which you have in common with them may be working with power, in the knowledge of every good thing in you, for Christ.
Philemon 1:7
For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother.

And make a room ready for me; for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be given to you.

As it was given to you by Epaphras, our well-loved helper, who is a true servant of Christ for us,

And Jesus, whose other name is Justus; these are of the circumcision: they are my only brother-workers for the kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.
