Today's New International Version Help
1Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Philemon our dear friend and fellow worker—G3972G1198G2424G5547G2532G5095G80G5371G2257G27G2532G4904
2also to Apphia our sister and Archippus our fellow soldier—and to the church that meets in your home:G2532G27G682G2532G751G2257G4961G2532G1577G2596G4675G3624
3Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.G5485G5213G2532G1515G575G2316G2257G3962G2532G2962G2424G5547
4I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers,G2168G3450G2316G4160G3417G4675G3842G1909G3450G4335
5because I hear about your love for all his people and your faith in the Lord Jesus.G191G4675G26G2532G4102G3739G2192G4314G2962G2424G2532G1519G3956G40
6I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding of every good thing we share for the sake of Christ.G3704G2842G4675G4102G1096G1756G1722G1922G3956G18G3588G1722G5213G1519G5547G2424
7Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the Lord's people.G1063G2192G4183G5485G2532G3874G1909G4675G26G3754G4698G40G373G1223G4675G80
8Therefore, although in Christ I could be bold and order you to do what you ought to do,G1352G2192G4183G3954G1722G5547G2004G4671G433
9yet I prefer to appeal to you on the basis of love. It is as none other than Paul—an old man and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus—G1223G26G3870G3123G3870G5607G5108G5613G3972G4246G1161G3570G2532G1198G2424G5547
10that I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, who became my son while I was in chains.G3870G4571G4012G1699G5043G3682G3739G1080G1722G3450G1199
11Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me.G3588G4218G890G4671G890G1161G3570G2173G4671G2532G1698
12I am sending him—who is my very heart—back to you.G3739G375G4771G1161G4355G846G5123G1699G4698
13I 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.G3739G1473G1014G2722G4314G1683G2443G4675G5228G1247G3427G1722G1199G2098
14But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that any favor you do would not seem forced but would be voluntary.G1161G5565G4674G1106G2309G4160G3762G3363G4675G18G5600G3363G5600G5613G2596G318G235G1595G2596
15Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back forever—G1063G1223G5029G5563G5124G5563G4314G5610G2443G568G846G166
16no 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 fellow man and as a brother in the Lord.G3765G5613G1401G235G5228G1401G80G27G3122G1698G1161G4214G3123G4671G2532G1722G4561G2532G1722G2962
17So if you consider me a partner, welcome him as you would welcome me.G1487G2192G1691G3767G2844G4355G846G5613G1691
18If he has done you any wrong or owes you anything, charge it to me.G1161G1487G91G4571G2228G3784G5100G1677G5124G1677G1698
19I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand. I will pay it back—not to mention that you owe me your very self.G1473G3972G1125G1699G5495G1473G661G3363G3004G3363G3004G4671G3754G4359G3427G2532G4572G4359
20I do wish, brother, that I may have some benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.G3483G80G3685G1473G3685G4675G1722G2962G373G3450G4698G1722G2962
21Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I ask.G3982G4675G5218G1125G4671G1492G3754G4160G2532G4160G3739G5228G3004
22And one thing more: Prepare a guest room for me, because I hope to be restored to you in answer to your prayers.G1161G260G2090G3427G2532G3578G1063G1679G3754G1223G5216G4335G5483G5213
23Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you greetings.G782G4571G1889G3450G4869G1722G5547G2424
24And so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke, my fellow workers.G3138G708G1214G3065G3450G4904
25The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.G5485G2257G2962G2424G5547G3326G5216G4151G281
