5hearing{G191} of thy{G4675} love,{G26} and{G2532} of the faith{G4102} which{G3739} thou hast{G2192} toward{G4314} the Lord{G2962} Jesus,{G2424} and{G2532} toward{G1519} all{G3956} the saints;{G40}
6that{G3704} the fellowship{G2842} of thy{G4675} faith{G4102} may become{G1096} effectual,{G1756} in{G1722} the knowledge{G1922} of every{G3956} good thing{G18} which is{G3588} in{G1722} you,{G5213} unto{G1519} Christ.{G5547}
7For{G1063} I had{G2192} much{G4183} joy{G5479} and{G2532} comfort{G3874} in{G1909} thy{G4675} love,{G26} because{G3754} the hearts{G4698} of the saints{G40} have been refreshed{G373} through{G1223} thee,{G4675} brother.{G80}
8Wherefore,{G1352} though I have{G2192} all{G4183} boldness{G3954} in{G1722} Christ{G5547} to enjoin{G2004} thee{G4671} that which is befitting,{G433}
9yet for{G1223} love's{G26} sake{G1223} I{G3870} rather{G3123} beseech,{G3870} being{G5607} such a one{G5108} as{G5613} Paul{G3972} the aged,{G4246} and{G1161} now{G3570} a prisoner{G1198} also{G2532} of Christ{G5547} Jesus:{G2424}
10I beseech{G3870} thee{G4571} for{G4012} my{G1700} child,{G5043} whom{G3739} I have begotten{G1080} in{G1722} my{G3450} bonds,{G1199} Onesimus,{G3682}
11who{G3588} once{G4218} was{G3588} unprofitable{G890} to thee,{G4671} but{G1161} now{G3570} is profitable{G2173} to thee{G4671} and{G2532} to me:{G1698}
12whom{G3739} I have sent back{G375} to thee{G4771} {G1161} in{G4355} his own person,{G846} that{G5124} is,{G2076} my very{G1699} heart:{G4698}
13whom{G3739} I{G1473} would{G1014} fain have kept{G2722} with{G4314} me,{G1683} that{G2443} in{G5228} thy{G4675} behalf{G5228} he might minister{G1247} unto me{G3427} in{G1722} the bonds{G1199} of the gospel:{G2098}
15For{G1063} perhaps{G5029} he{G5563} was therefore{G5124} parted{G5563} [from thee] for{G4314} a season,{G5610} that{G2443} thou shouldest have{G568} him{G846} for ever;{G166}
16no longer{G3765} as{G5613} a servant,{G1401} but{G235} more{G5228} than a servant,{G1401} a brother{G80} beloved,{G27} specially{G3122} to me,{G1698} but{G1161} how much{G4214} rather{G3123} to thee,{G4671} both{G2532} in{G1722} the flesh{G4561} and{G2532} in{G1722} the Lord.{G2962}
18But if{G1487} he hath wronged{G91} thee{G4571} at all, or{G2228} oweth{G3784} [thee]{G4571} aught, put{G1677} that{G5124} to mine{G1698} account;{G1677}
19I{G1473} Paul{G3972} write{G1125} it{G1473} with mine own{G1699} hand,{G5495} I{G1473} will repay{G661} it: None that{G2443} I say{G3004} not{G3361} unto thee{G4671} that{G3754} thou owest{G4359} to me{G3427} even{G2532} thine own self{G4572} besides.{G4359}
20Yea,{G3483} brother,{G80} let{G3685} me{G1473} have joy{G3685} of thee{G4675} in{G1722} the Lord:{G2962} refresh{G373} my{G3450} heart{G4698} in{G1722} Christ.{G2962}
21Having confidence{G3982} in{G5218} thine{G4675} obedience{G5218} I write{G1125} unto thee,{G4671} knowing{G1492} that{G3754} thou wilt do{G4160} even{G2532} beyond{G5228} what I say.{G3004}
22But{G1161} withal{G260} prepare{G2090} me{G3427} also{G2532} a lodging:{G3578} for{G1063} I hope{G1679} that{G3754} through{G1223} your{G5216} prayers{G4335} I shall be granted{G5483} unto you.{G5213}
