Phlm 1:8-9 : 8 Therefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to command you to do what is fitting,
9 Yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you, being such a one as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus.
10 I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten while in my chains:
11 Who in time past was unprofitable to you, but now is profitable to you and to me.
12 I am sending him back to you. Therefore, receive him, that is, my own heart:
13 Whom I wished to keep with me, so that he might minister to me in your place in my chains for the gospel:
14 But without your consent I wanted to do nothing, that your benefit should not be by compulsion, but willingly.
15 For perhaps he departed for a while for this purpose, that you might receive him forever;
16 No longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord?
17 If then you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.
18 If he has wronged you or owes you anything, put that on my account;
19 I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand, I will repay it: although I do not say to you that you owe me even your own self besides.
20 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord: refresh my heart in the Lord.
