빌레몬서 1장 NASB

  1. 1 Paul a prisoner of Christ Jesus and Timothy our brother To Philemon our beloved brother and fellow worker
  2. 2 and to Apphia our sister and to Archippus our fellow soldier and to the church in your house:
  3. 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
  4. 4 I thank my God always making mention of you in my prayers
  5. 5 because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints;
  6. 6 and I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through the knowledge of every good thing which is in you for Christ's sake.
  7. 7 For I have come to have much joy and comfort in your love because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you brother.
  8. 8 Therefore though I have enough confidence in Christ to order you to do what is proper
  9. 9 yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you--since I am such a person as Paul the aged and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus--
  10. 10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus whom I have begotten in my imprisonment
  11. 11 who formerly was useless to you but now is useful both to you and to me.
  12. 12 I have sent him back to you in person that is sending my very heart
  13. 13 whom I wished to keep with me so that on your behalf he might minister to me in my imprisonment for the gospel;
  14. 14 but without your consent I did not want to do anything so that your goodness would not be in effect by compulsion but of your own free will.
  15. 15 For perhaps he was for this reason separated from you for a while that you would have him back forever
  16. 16 no longer as a slave but more than a slave a beloved brother especially to me but how much more to you both in the flesh and in the Lord.
  17. 17 If then you regard me a partner accept him as you would me.
  18. 18 But if he has wronged you in any way or owes you anything charge that to my account;
  19. 19 I Paul am writing this with my own hand I will repay it ( not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self as well).
  20. 20 Yes brother let me benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.
  21. 21 Having confidence in your obedience I write to you since I know that you will do even more than what I say.
  22. 22 At the same time also prepare me a lodging for I hope that through your prayers I will be given to you.
  23. 23 Epaphras my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus greets you
  24. 24 as do Mark Aristarchus Demas Luke my fellow workers.
  25. 25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
