10I exhort thee for *my* child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus,
11once unserviceable to thee, but now serviceable to thee and to me:
12whom I have sent back to thee: but do *thou* receive him, that is, *my* bowels:
13whom *I* was desirous of keeping with myself, that for thee he might minister to me in the bonds of the glad tidings;
14but I have wished to do nothing without thy mind, that thy good might not be as of necessity but of willingness:
15for perhaps for this reason he has been separated from thee for a time, that thou mightest possess him fully for ever;
16not any longer as a bondman, but above a bondman, a beloved brother, specially to me, and how much rather to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord?
17If therefore thou holdest me to be a partner with thee, receive him as me;
18but if he have wronged thee anything or owe anything to thee, put this to my account.
19*I* Paul have written it with mine own hand; *I* will repay it: that I say not to thee that thou owest even thine own self also to me.
20Yea, brother, *I* would have profit of *thee* in the Lord: refresh my bowels in Christ.
