Titus 3

The Epistle of Paul to Philemon

Return to Index

Chapter 1

1

 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellow-laborer, 

 


2

 And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy house: 

 


3

 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 

 


4

 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, 

 


5

 Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast towards the Lord Jesus, and towards all saints; 

 


6

 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. 

 


7

 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother. 

 


8

 Wherefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient. 

 


9

 Yet for love's sake I rather beseech thee, being such one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ. 

 


10

 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds: 

 


11

 Who in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me: 

 


12

 Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, my own bowels: 

 


13

 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel: 

 


14

 But without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly. 

 


15

 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldst receive him for ever; 

 


16

 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more to thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord? 

 


17

 If thou accountest me therefore a partner, receive him as myself. 

 


18

 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee aught, put that on my account; 

 


19

 I Paul have written it with my own hand, I will repay it: although I do not say to thee that thou owest to me even thy own self besides. 

 


20

 Yes, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord. 

 


21

 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote to thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. 

 


22

 But at the same time prepare me also a lodging; for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given to you. 

 


23

 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus; 

 


24

 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellow-laborers. 

 


25

 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
