 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Philemon our beloved brother and fellow worker, | 1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer, | 1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker, | 1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy, a brother: to Philemon, our beloved and fellow labourer; | 1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timotheus the brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker, | 2 and to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house: | 2 And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house: | 2 and to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy house: | 2 And to Appia, our dearest sister, and to Archippus, our fellow soldier, and to the church which is in thy house: | 2 and Apphia the beloved, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and the assembly in thy house: | 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. | 3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. | 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. | 3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. | 3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ! | Philemon’s Love and Faith |
| 4 I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers, | 4 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, | 4 I thank my God always, making mention of thee in my prayers, | 4 I give thanks to my God, always making a remembrance of thee in my prayers. | 4 I give thanks to my God, always making mention of thee in my prayers, | 5 because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints; | 5 Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints; | 5 hearing of thy love, and of the faith which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints; | 5 Hearing of thy charity and faith, which thou hast in the Lord Jesus, and towards all the saints: | 5 hearing of thy love and faith that thou hast unto the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints, | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 and I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through the knowledge of every good thing which is in you for Christ's sake. | 6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. | 6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become effectual, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in you, unto Christ. | 6 That the communication of thy faith may be made evident in the acknowledgment of every good work, that is in you in Christ Jesus. | 6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become working in the full knowledge of every good thing that is in you toward Christ Jesus; | 7 For I have come to have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother. | 7 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother. | 7 For I had much joy and comfort in thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. | 7 For I have had great joy and consolation in thy charity, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed by thee, brother. | 7 for we have much joy and comfort in thy love, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. | 8 Therefore, though I have enough confidence in Christ to order you to do what is proper, | 8 Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient, | 8 Wherefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to enjoin thee that which is befitting, | 8 Wherefore though I have much confidence in Christ Jesus, to command thee that which is to the purpose: | 8 Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit -- | 9 yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you-- since I am such a person as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus-- | 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. | 9 yet for love's sake I rather beseech, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now a prisoner also of Christ Jesus: | 9 For charity sake I rather beseech, whereas thou art such a one, as Paul an old man, and now a prisoner also of Jesus Christ. | 9 because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ; | Plea for Onesimus, a Free Man |
| 10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my imprisonment, | 10 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds: | 10 I beseech thee for my child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus, | 10 I beseech thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bands, Onesimus, | 10 I entreat thee concerning my child -- whom I did beget in my bonds -- Onesimus, | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 who formerly was useless to you, but now is useful both to you and to me. | 11 Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me: | 11 who once was unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable to thee and to me: | 11 Who hath been heretofore unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable both to me and thee, | 11 who once was to thee unprofitable, and now is profitable to me and to thee, | 12 I have sent him back to you in person, that is, sending my very heart, | 12 Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels: | 12 whom I have sent back to thee in his own person, that is, my very heart: | 12 Whom I have sent back to thee. And do thou receive him as my own bowels. | 12 whom I did send again, and thou him (that is, my own bowels) receive, | 13 whom I wished to keep with me, so that on your behalf he might minister to me in my imprisonment for the gospel; | 13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel: | 13 whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel: | 13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bands of the gospel: | 13 whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news, | 14 but without your consent I did not want to do anything, so that your goodness would not be, in effect, by compulsion but of your own free will. | 14 But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly. | 14 but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will. | 14 But without thy counsel I would do nothing: that thy good deed might not be as it were of necessity, but voluntary. | 14 and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness, | 15 For perhaps he was for this reason separated from you for a while, that you would have him back forever, | 15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever; | 15 For perhaps he was therefore parted from thee for a season, that thou shouldest have him for ever; | 15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season from thee, that thou mightest receive him again for ever: | 15 for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him, | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 16 no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord. | 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? | 16 no longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much rather to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord. | 16 Not now as a servant, but instead of a servant, a most dear brother, especially to me: but how much more to thee both in the flesh and in the Lord? | 16 no more as a servant, but above a servant -- a brother beloved, especially to me, and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord! | 17 If then you regard me a partner, accept him as you would me. | 17 If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself. | 17 If then thou countest me a partner, receive him as myself. | 17 If therefore thou count me a partner, receive him as myself. | 17 If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me, | 18 But if he has wronged you in any way or owes you anything, charge that to my account; | 18 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account; | 18 But if he hath wronged the at all, or oweth thee aught, put that to mine account; | 18 And if he hath wronged thee in any thing, or is in thy debt, put that to my account. | 18 and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning; | 19 I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand, I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self as well). | 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. | 19 I Paul write it with mine own hand, I will repay it: that I say not unto thee that thou owest to me even thine own self besides. | 19 I Paul have written it with my own hand: I will repay it: not to say to thee, that thou owest me thy own self also. | 19 I, Paul did write with my hand, I -- I will repay; that I may not say that also thyself, besides, to me thou dost owe. | 20 Yes, brother, let me benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ. | 20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord. | 20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my heart in Christ. | 20 Yea, brother. May I enjoy thee in the Lord. Refresh my bowels in the Lord. | 20 Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 21 Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, since I know that you will do even more than what I say. | 21 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. | 21 Having confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say. | 21 Trusting in thy obedience, I have written to thee: knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. | 21 having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do; | 22 At the same time also prepare me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I will be given to you. | 22 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you. | 22 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted unto you. | 22 But withal prepare me also a lodging. For I hope that through your prayers I shall be given unto you. | 22 and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you. | 23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you, | 23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus; | 23 Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus, saluteth thee; | 23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus; | 23 Salute thee doth Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,) | 24 as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow workers. | 24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers. | 24 and so do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow-workers. | 24 Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke my fellow labourers. | 24 Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen! | 25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. | 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. | 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. | 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. | 25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with your spirit! Amen. |
