Philemon chapter 1 of 1 (39 verses)

Philemon 1:1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our dear helper in the faith,

Philemon 1:2 And to Apphia, our sister, and to Archippus, our brother in God's army, and to the church in your house:

Philemon 1:3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Philemon 1:4 I give praise to God at all times and make prayer for you,

Philemon 1:5 Hearing of the love and the faith which you have to the Lord Jesus and to all the saints;

Philemon 1:6 That the faith which you have in common with them may be working with power, in the knowledge of every good thing in you, for Christ.

Philemon 1:7 For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother.

Philemon 1:8 And so, though I might, in the name of Christ, give you orders to do what is right,

Philemon 1:9 Still, because of love, in place of an order, I make a request to you, I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner of Christ Jesus:

Philemon 1:10 My request is for my child Onesimus, the child of my chains,

Philemon 1:11 Who in the past was of no profit to you, but now is of profit to you and to me:

Philemon 1:12 Whom I have sent back to you, him who is my very heart:

Philemon 1:13 Though my desire was to keep him with me, to be my servant in the chains of the good news, in your place:

Philemon 1:14 But without your approval I would do nothing; so that your good works might not be forced, but done freely from your heart.

Philemon 1:15 For it is possible that for this reason he was parted from you for a time, so that you might have him for ever;

Philemon 1:16 No longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother, very dear to me specially, but much more to you, in the flesh as well as in the Lord.

Philemon 1:17 If then you take me to be your friend and brother, take him in as myself.

Philemon 1:18 If he has done you any wrong or is in debt to you for anything, put it to my account.

Philemon 1:19 I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life.

Philemon 1:20 So brother, let me have joy of you in the Lord: give new life to my heart in Christ.

Philemon 1:21 Being certain that you will do my desire, I am writing to you, in the knowledge that you will do even more than I say.

Philemon 1:22 And make a room ready for me; for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be given to you.

Philemon 1:23 Epaphras, my brother-prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you his love;

Philemon 1:24 And so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my brother-workers.

Philemon 1:25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. So be it.

Philemon 1:1 In times past the word of God came to our fathers through the prophets, in different parts and in different ways;

Philemon 1:2 But now, at the end of these days, it has come to us through his Son, to whom he has given all things for a heritage, and through whom he made the order of the generations;

Philemon 1:3 Who, being the outshining of his glory, the true image of his substance, supporting all things by the word of his power, having given himself as an offering making clean from sins, took his seat at the right hand of God in heaven;

Philemon 1:4 Having become by so much better than the angels, as the name which is his heritage is more noble than theirs.

Philemon 1:5 To which of the angels did God say at any time, You are my Son, this day I have given you being? or, I will be his Father, and he will be my Son?

Philemon 1:6 And again, when he is sending his only Son into the world, he says, Let all the angels of God give him worship.

Philemon 1:7 And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels winds, and his servants flames of fire:

Philemon 1:8 But of the Son he says, Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; and the rod of your kingdom is a rod of righteousness.

Philemon 1:9 You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil; and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head more than on the heads of those who are with you.

Philemon 1:10 You, Lord, at the first did put the earth on its base, and the heavens are the works of your hands:

Philemon 1:11 They will come to their end; but you are for ever; they will become old as a robe;

Philemon 1:12 They will be rolled up like a cloth, even like a robe, and they will be changed: but you are the same and your years will have no end.

Philemon 1:13 But of which of the angels has he said at any time, Take your seat at my right hand till I put all those who are against you under your feet?

Philemon 1:14 Are they not all helping spirits, who are sent out as servants to those whose heritage will be salvation?
