Philemon 1:14
King James Version
Translation: KJV
12Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:Select Philemon 1:12
13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:Select Philemon 1:13
14But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.Select Philemon 1:14
15For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;Select Philemon 1:15
16Not 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?Select Philemon 1:16
