KJV ¹ Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,

TR1550 ¹ παῦλος δέσμιος χριστοῦ ἰησοῦ, καὶ τιμόθεος ὁ ἀδελφὸς, φιλήμονι τῷ ἀγαπητῷ καὶ συνεργῷ ἡμῶν

KJV ² And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:

TR1550 ² καὶ ἀπφίᾳ τῇ ἀγαπητῇ, καὶ ἀρχίππῳ τῷ συστρατιώτῃ ἡμῶν, καὶ τῇ κατ᾽ οἶκόν σου ἐκκλησίᾳ

KJV ³ Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

TR1550 ³ χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, καὶ κυρίου ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ

KJV ⁴ I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,

TR1550 ⁴ εὐχαριστῶ τῷ θεῷ μου, πάντοτε μνείαν σου ποιούμενος ἐπὶ τῶν προσευχῶν μου

KJV ⁵ Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;

TR1550 ⁵ ἀκούων σου τὴν ἀγάπην καὶ τὴν πίστιν ἣν ἔχεις πρὸς τὸν κύριον ἰησοῦν καὶ εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἁγίους

KJV ⁶ That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.

TR1550 ⁶ ὅπως ἡ κοινωνία τῆς πίστεώς σου ἐνεργὴς γένηται ἐν ἐπιγνώσει παντὸς ἀγαθοῦ τοῦ ἐν ὑμῖν εἰς χριστὸν ἰησοῦν

KJV ⁷ For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.

TR1550 ⁷ χάριν γὰρ ἔχομεν πολλὴν καὶ παράκλησιν ἐπὶ τῇ ἀγάπῃ σου, ὅτι τὰ σπλάγχνα τῶν ἁγίων ἀναπέπαυται διὰ σοῦ, ἀδελφέ

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

TR1550 ⁸ διὸ πολλὴν ἐν χριστῷ παῤῥησίαν ἔχων ἐπιτάσσειν σοι τὸ ἀνῆκον

KJV 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.

TR1550 ⁹ διὰ τὴν ἀγάπην μᾶλλον παρακαλῶ τοιοῦτος ὢν ὡς παῦλος πρεσβύτης νυνὶ δὲ καὶ δέσμιος ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ

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

TR1550 ¹⁰ παρακαλῶ σε περὶ τοῦ ἐμοῦ τέκνου ὃν ἐγέννησα ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς μου ὀνήσιμον

KJV ¹¹ Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:

TR1550 ¹¹ τὸν ποτέ σοι ἄχρηστον νυνὶ δέ σοι καὶ ἐμοὶ εὔχρηστον

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

TR1550 ¹² ὃν ἀνέπεμψα σὺ δὲ αὐτὸν τουτέστι τὰ ἐμὰ σπλάγχνα προσλαβοῦ

KJV ¹³ Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

TR1550 ¹³ ὃν ἐγὼ ἐβουλόμην πρὸς ἐμαυτὸν κατέχειν ἵνα ὑπὲρ σοῦ διακονῇ μοι ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς τοῦ εὐαγγελίου

KJV ¹⁴ But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.

TR1550 ¹⁴ χωρὶς δὲ τῆς σῆς γνώμης οὐδὲν ἠθέλησα ποιῆσαι ἵνα μὴ ὡς κατὰ ἀνάγκην τὸ ἀγαθόν σου ᾖ ἀλλὰ κατὰ ἑκούσιον

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

TR1550 ¹⁵ τάχα γὰρ διὰ τοῦτο ἐχωρίσθη πρὸς ὥραν ἵνα αἰώνιον αὐτὸν ἀπέχῃς

KJV 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?

TR1550 ¹⁶ οὐκέτι ὡς δοῦλον ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὲρ δοῦλον ἀδελφὸν ἀγαπητὸν μάλιστα ἐμοὶ πόσῳ δὲ μᾶλλόν σοι καὶ ἐν σαρκὶ καὶ ἐν κυρίῳ

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

TR1550 ¹⁷ εἰ οὖν ἐμὲ ἔχεις κοινωνὸν προσλαβοῦ αὐτὸν ὡς ἐμέ

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

TR1550 ¹⁸ εἰ δέ τι ἠδίκησέν σε ἢ ὀφείλει τοῦτο ἐμοὶ ἐλλόγει

KJV 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.

TR1550 ¹⁹ ἐγὼ παῦλος ἔγραψα τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ ἐγὼ ἀποτίσω ἵνα μὴ λέγω σοι ὅτι καὶ σεαυτόν μοι προσοφείλεις

KJV ²⁰ Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

TR1550 ²⁰ ναὶ ἀδελφέ ἐγώ σου ὀναίμην ἐν κυρίῳ ἀνάπαυσόν μου τὰ σπλάγχνα ἐν κυρίῳ

KJV ²¹ Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.

TR1550 ²¹ πεποιθὼς τῇ ὑπακοῇ σου ἔγραψά σοι εἰδὼς ὅτι καὶ ὑπὲρ ὃ λέγω ποιήσεις

KJV ²² But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.

TR1550 ²² ἅμα δὲ καὶ ἑτοίμαζέ μοι ξενίαν ἐλπίζω γὰρ ὅτι διὰ τῶν προσευχῶν ὑμῶν χαρισθήσομαι ὑμῖν

KJV ²³ There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;

TR1550 ²³ ἀσπάζονταί σε ἐπαφρᾶς ὁ συναιχμάλωτός μου ἐν χριστῷ ἰησοῦ

KJV ²⁴ Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.

TR1550 ²⁴ μάρκος ἀρίσταρχος δημᾶς λουκᾶς οἱ συνεργοί μου

KJV ²⁵ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

TR1550 ²⁵ Ἡ χάρις τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ μετὰ τοῦ πνεύματος ὑμῶν ἀμήν
