| Philemon 1:2 | And to Appia, our dearest sister, and to Archippus, our fellow soldier, and to the church which is in thy house: | and to our sister Apphia and our comrade Archippus as well as to the Church in your house. | And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy house: |
| Philemon 1:3 | Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. | May grace be granted to you all, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. | Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
| Philemon 1:4 | I give thanks to my God, always making a remembrance of thee in my prayers. | I give continual thanks to my God while making mention of you, my brother, in my prayers, | I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers, |
| Philemon 1:5 | Hearing of thy charity and faith, which thou hast in the Lord Jesus, and towards all the saints: | because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have towards the Lord Jesus and which you manifest towards all God's people; | Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast towards the Lord Jesus, and towards all saints; |
| Philemon 1:6 | That the communication of thy faith may be made evident in the acknowledgment of every good work, that is in you in Christ Jesus. | praying as I do, that their participation in your faith may result in others fully recognizing all the right affection that is in us toward Christ. | That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus. |
| Philemon 1:7 | For I have had great joy and consolation in thy charity, because the bowels of the saints have been refreshed by thee, brother. | For I have found great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of God's people have been, and are, refreshed through you, my brother. | For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother. |
| Philemon 1:8 | Wherefore though I have much confidence in Christ Jesus, to command thee that which is to the purpose: | Therefore, though I might with Christ's authority speak very freely and order you to do what is fitting, | Wherefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient. |
| Philemon 1:9 | For charity sake I rather beseech, whereas thou art such a one, as Paul an old man, and now a prisoner also of Jesus Christ. | it is for love's sake that instead of that although I am none other than Paul the aged, and am now also a prisoner for Christ Jesus, | Yet for love's sake I rather beseech thee, being such one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ. |
| Philemon 1:10 | I beseech thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bands, Onesimus, | I entreat you on behalf of my own child whose father I have become while in my chains I mean Onesimus. | I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds: |
| Philemon 1:11 | Who hath been heretofore unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable both to me and thee, | Formerly he was useless to you, but now true to his name he is of great use to you and to me. | Who in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me: |
| Philemon 1:12 | Whom I have sent back to thee. And do thou receive him as my own bowels. | I am sending him back to you, though in so doing I send part of myself. | Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, my own bowels: |
| Philemon 1:13 | Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bands of the gospel: | It was my wish to keep him at my side for him to attend to my wants, as your representative, during my imprisonment for the Good News. | Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel: |
| Philemon 1:14 | But without thy counsel I would do nothing: that thy good deed might not be as it were of necessity, but voluntary. | Only I wished to do nothing without your consent, so that his kind action of yours might not be done under pressure, but might be a voluntary one. | But without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly. |
| Philemon 1:15 | For perhaps he therefore departed for a season from thee, that thou mightest receive him again for ever: | For perhaps it was for this reason he was parted from you for a time, that you might receive him back wholly and for ever yours; | For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldst receive him for ever; |
| Philemon 1:16 | Not now as a servant, but instead of a servant, a most dear brother, especially to me: but how much more to thee both in the flesh and in the Lord? | no longer as a slave, but as something better than a slave a brother peculiarly dear to me, and even dearer to you, both as a servant and as a fellow Christian. | Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more to thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord? |
| Philemon 1:17 | If therefore thou count me a partner, receive him as myself. | If therefore you regard me as a comrade, receive him as if he were I myself. | If thou accountest me therefore a partner, receive him as myself. |
| Philemon 1:18 | And if he hath wronged thee in any thing, or is in thy debt, put that to my account. | And if he was ever dishonest or is in your debt, debit me with the amount. | If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee aught, put that on my account; |
| Philemon 1:19 | I Paul have written it with my own hand: I will repay it: not to say to thee, that thou owest me thy own self also. | I Paul write this with my own hand I will pay you in full. (I say nothing of the fact that you owe me even your own self.) | I Paul have written it with my own hand, I will repay it: although I do not say to thee that thou owest to me even thy own self besides. |
| Philemon 1:20 | Yea, brother. May I enjoy thee in the Lord. Refresh my bowels in the Lord. | Yes, brother, do me this favour for the Lord's sake. Refresh my heart in Christ. | Yes, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord. |
| Philemon 1:21 | Trusting in thy obedience, I have written to thee: knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. | I write to you in the full confidence that you will meet my wishes, for I know you will do even more than I say. | Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote to thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say. |
| Philemon 1:22 | But withal prepare me also a lodging. For I hope that through your prayers I shall be given unto you. | And at the same time provide accommodation for me; for I hope that through your prayers I shall be permitted to come to you. | But at the same time prepare me also a lodging; for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given to you. |
| Philemon 1:23 | There salute thee Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus; | Greetings to you, my brother, from Epaphras my fellow prisoner for the sake of Christ Jesus; | There salute thee Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus; |
| Philemon 1:24 | Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke my fellow labourers. | and from Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers. | Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellow-laborers. |
| Philemon 1:25 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. | May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with the spirit of every one of you. | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. |
