Revised Young's Literal Translation
New Testament
1:1 | Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy the brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker, |
1:2 | and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in your house: |
1:3 | Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ! |
1:4 | I give thanks to my God, always making mention of you in my prayers, |
1:5 | hearing of your love and faith that you have unto the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, |
1:6 | that the fellowship of your faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that is in you toward Christ Jesus; |
1:7 | for we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the affections of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother. |
1:8 | Therefore, having in Christ much boldness to command you that which is fit -- |
1:9 | because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ; |
1:10 | I entreat you concerning my child -- whom I did beget in my bonds -- Onesimus, |
1:11 | who once was to you unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to you, |
1:12 | whom I did send again, and you him (that is, my own affections) receive, |
1:13 | whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in your behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news, |
1:14 | and apart from your mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity your good deed may not be, but of willingness, |
1:15 | for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly you may have him, |
1:16 | no more as a servant, but above a servant -- a brother beloved, especially to me, and how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord! |
1:17 | If, then, with me you have fellowship, receive him as me, |
1:18 | and if he did hurt to you, or does owe anything, this to me be reckoning; |
1:19 | I, Paul did write with my hand, I -- I will repay; that I may not say that also yourself, besides, to me you do owe. |
1:20 | Yes, brother, may I have profit of you in the Lord; refresh my affections in the Lord; |
1:21 | having been confident in your obedience I did write to you, having known that also above what I may say you will do; |
1:22 | and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you. |
1:23 | Salute you does Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,) |
1:24 | Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen! |
1:25 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with your spirit! Amen. |
