    13Whom I wished to keep with me, so that he might minister to me in your place in my chains for the gospel:

    19I, 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.

    20Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord: refresh my heart in the Lord.
