PHILEMON 1 : 17 & 18 & 19



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

18      If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;

19     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.

PHILEMON 1 : 15 & 16



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

16    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?

PHILEMON 1 : 13 & 14



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

PHILEMON 1 : 10 & 11 & 12



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

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

PHILEMON 1 : 8 & 9



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

9          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

PHILEMON 1 : 6 & 7



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
