    12I have sent him(who is my very heart) back to you.

    13I wanted to keep him with me so that he could serve me in your place during my imprisonment for the sake of the gospel.

    14However, without your consent I did not want to do anything, so that your good deed would not be out of compulsion, but from your own willingness.

    15For perhaps it was for this reason that he was separated from you for a little while, so that you would have him back eternally,

    16no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, as a dear brother. He is especially so to me, and even more so to you now, both humanly speaking and in the Lord.

    25But for now I have considered it necessary to send Epaphroditus to you. For he is my brother, coworker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to me in my need.

    28Therefore I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again you can rejoice and I can be free from anxiety.
