PHILEMON
Chapter 1
Phil | ABP | 1:1 | Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy the brother, to Philemon the beloved, and our fellow-worker, | |
Phil | ABP | 1:2 | and to Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the [2at 3your house 1assembly]. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:5 | hearing [3of yours 1the 2love], and the belief which you have towards the Lord Jesus, and to all the holy ones, | |
Phil | ABP | 1:6 | that the fellowship of the belief of yours [2active 1should become] in full knowledge of every [2work 1good], of the one in you in Christ Jesus. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:7 | [4gratitude 1For 2we have 3much] and comfort over your love, because the feelings of compassion of the holy ones have been rested through you, O brother. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:8 | Therefore, [2a great 4in 5Christ 3openness 1having], to give orders to you, the thing related, | |
Phil | ABP | 1:9 | [3through 4the 5love 2rather 1I appeal], being such a one as Paul an old man, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:11 | the one at some time or other useless to you, but now [2to you 3and 4to me 1useful], whom I sent back to you. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:12 | But you ([2for him 1that is]) [2the things 3concerning my 4feelings of compassion 1receive]! | |
Phil | ABP | 1:13 | whom I wanted [2for 3myself 1to keep], that for you he should be serving to me in the bonds of the good news. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:14 | But without the help of your opinion [3nothing 1I wanted 2to do]; that [4not 6as 7according to 8necessity 2good 1your 3should 5be], but as voluntary. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:15 | For perhaps on account of this he was separated for an hour, that eternally you should receive him; | |
Phil | ABP | 1:16 | no longer as a bondman, but above a bondman, [2brother 1a beloved], especially to me, and how much more to you, both in flesh and in the Lord. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:19 | I, Paul, write in my hand. I will pay -- for I should not say to you that even yourself owes me besides. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:20 | Yes, O brother, [2I 4you 1may 3oblige] in the Lord; rest my feelings of compassion in the Lord! | |
Phil | ABP | 1:21 | Relying upon your obedience, I wrote to you, knowing that even above what I say you will do. | |
Phil | ABP | 1:22 | But at the same time also prepare for me a guest room! For I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you. | |
