절Contemporary English Version (2006)King James Version
1 From Paul, who is in jail for serving Christ Jesus, and from Timothy, who is like a brother because of our faith. Philemon, you work with us and are very dear to us. This letter is to you Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
2 and to the church that meets in your home. It is also to our dear friend Apphia and to Archippus, who serves the Lord as we do. And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:
3 I pray that God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ will be kind to you and will bless you with peace! Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4
Philemon's Love and Faith
Philemon, each time I mention you in my prayers, I thank God.
I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
5 I hear about your faith in our Lord Jesus and about your love for all God's people. Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
6 As you share your faith with others, I pray they may come to know all the blessings Christ has given us. That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
7 My friend, your love has made me happy and has greatly encouraged me. It has also cheered the hearts of God's people. For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
8
Paul Speaks to Philemon about Onesimus
Christ gives me the courage to tell you what to do.
Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
9 But I would rather ask you to do it simply because of love. Yes, as someone in jail for Christ, Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10 I beg you to help Onesimus! He is like a son to me because I led him to Christ here in jail. I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
11 Before this, he was useless to you, but now he is useful both to you and to me. Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
12 Sending Onesimus back to you makes me very sad. Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
13 I would like to keep him here with me, where he could take your place in helping me while I am here in prison for preaching the good news. Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
14 But I won't do anything unless you agree to it first. I want your act of kindness to come from your heart, and not be something you feel forced to do. But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
15 Perhaps Onesimus was taken from you for a little while so you could have him back for good, For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
16 but not as a slave. Onesimus is much more than a slave. To me he is a dear friend, but to you he is even more, both as a person and as a follower of the Lord. Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
17 If you consider me a friend because of Christ, then welcome Onesimus as you would welcome me. If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
18 If he has cheated you or owes you anything, charge it to my account. If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;
19 With my own hand I write: I, PAUL, WILL PAY YOU BACK. But don't forget you owe me your life. I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
20 My dear friend and follower of Christ our Lord, please cheer me up by doing this for me. Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
21 I am sure you will do all I have asked, and even more. Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
22 Please get a room ready for me. I hope your prayers will be answered, and I can visit you. But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
23 Epaphras is also here in jail for being a follower of Christ Jesus. He sends his greetings, There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;
24 and so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, who work together with me. Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.
25 I pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will be kind to you! The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.
