| Philemon 1:7 | For I had much joy and comfort in thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. | For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother. | for we have much joy and comfort in thy love, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. |
| Philemon 1:8 | Wherefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to enjoin thee that which is befitting, | And so, though I might, in the name of Christ, give you orders to do what is right, | Wherefore, having in Christ much boldness to command thee that which is fit |
| Philemon 1:9 | yet for love's sake I rather beseech, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now a prisoner also of Christ Jesus: | Still, because of love, in place of an order, I make a request to you, I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner of Christ Jesus: | because of the love I rather entreat, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ; |
| Philemon 1:10 | I beseech thee for my child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus, | My request is for my child Onesimus, the child of my chains, | I entreat thee concerning my child whom I did beget in my bonds Onesimus, |

| Philemon 1:13 | whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel: | Though my desire was to keep him with me, to be my servant in the chains of the good news, in your place: | whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news, |
| Philemon 1:14 | but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will. | But without your approval I would do nothing; so that your good works might not be forced, but done freely from your heart. | and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness, |
| Philemon 1:15 | For perhaps he was therefore parted [from thee] for a season, that thou shouldest have him for ever; | For it is possible that for this reason he was parted from you for a time, so that you might have him for ever; | for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him, |
| Philemon 1:16 | 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. | No longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother, very dear to me specially, but much more to you, in the flesh as well as in the Lord. | 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! |
| Philemon 1:17 | If then thou countest me a partner, receive him as myself. | If then you take me to be your friend and brother, take him in as myself. | If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me, |
| Philemon 1:18 | But if he hath wronged thee at all, or oweth [thee] aught, put that to mine account; | If he has done you any wrong or is in debt to you for anything, put it to my account. | and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning; |
| Philemon 1:19 | 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. | I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life. | 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. |
| Philemon 1:20 | Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my heart in Christ. | So brother, let me have joy of you in the Lord: give new life to my heart in Christ. | Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord; |
| Philemon 1:21 | Having confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say. | Being certain that you will do my desire, I am writing to you, in the knowledge that you will do even more than I say. | having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do; |
| Philemon 1:22 | But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted unto you. | And make a room ready for me; for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be given to you. | and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you. |
| Philemon 1:23 | Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus, saluteth thee; | Epaphras, my brother-prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you his love; | Salute thee doth Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,) |
