Philemon

Chapter 1

1 Paul,3972 a prisoner1198 of Jesus2424 Christ,5547 and Timothy5095 our brother,80 to Philemon5371 our dearly beloved,27 and fellow laborer,4904

2 And to our beloved27 Apphia,682 and Archippus751 our fellow soldier,4961 and to the church1577 in your house:3624

3 Grace5485 to you, and peace,1515 from God2316 our Father3962 and the Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ.5547

4 I thank2168 my God,2316 making4160 mention3417 of you always3842 in my prayers,4335

5 Hearing191 of your love26 and faith,4102 which3739 you have2192 toward4314 the Lord2962 Jesus,2424 and toward1519 all3956 saints;40

6 That the communication2842 of your faith4102 may become1096 effectual1756 by the acknowledging1922 of every3956 good18 thing which3588 is in you in Christ5547 Jesus.2424

7 For we have2192 great4183 joy5485 and consolation3874 in your love,26 because3754 the bowels4698 of the saints40 are refreshed373 by you, brother.80

8 Why,1352 though I might be much4183 bold3954 in Christ5547 to enjoin2004 you that which is convenient,433

9 Yet for love's26 sake I rather3123 beseech3870 you, being5607 such5108 an one as Paul3972 the aged,4246 and now3570 also2532 a prisoner1198 of Jesus2424 Christ.5547

10 I beseech3870 you for my son5043 Onesimus,3682 whom3739 I have begotten1080 in my bonds:1199

11 Which3588 in time4218 past was to you unprofitable,890 but now3570 profitable2173 to you and to me:

12 Whom3739 I have sent375 again:375 you therefore receive4355 him, that is, my1699 own bowels:4698

13 Whom3739 I would have retained2722 with me, that in your stead5228 he might have ministered1247 to me in the bonds1199 of the gospel:2098

14 But without5565 your mind1106 would2309 I do4160 nothing;3762 that your benefit18 should not be as it were of necessity,318 but willingly.2596 1595

15 For perhaps5029 he therefore1223 5124 departed5563 for a season,5610 that you should receive568 him for ever;166

16 Not now3765 as a servant,1401 but above5228 a servant,1401 a brother80 beloved,27 specially3122 to me, but how4214 much4214 more3123 to you, both2532 in the flesh,4561 and in the Lord?2962

17 If1487 you count2192 me therefore3767 a partner,2844 receive4355 him as myself.1691

18 If1487 he has wronged91 you, or2228 owes3784 you ought,5100 put1677 that on1677 my1699 account;1677

19 I Paul3972 have written1125 it with my own hand,5495 I will repay661 it: albeit2443 I do not say3004 to you how3754 you owe4359 to me even2532 your4572 own4572 self4572 besides.4359

20 Yes,3483 brother,80 let me have joy3685 of you in the Lord:2962 refresh373 my bowels4698 in the Lord.2962

21 Having confidence3982 in your obedience5218 I wrote1125 to you, knowing1492 that you will also2532 do4160 more5228 than5228 I say.3004

22 But with260 prepare2090 me also2532 a lodging:3578 for I trust1679 that through1223 your5216 prayers4335 I shall be given5483 to you.

23 There salute782 you Epaphras,1889 my fellow prisoner4869 in Christ5547 Jesus;2424

24 Marcus,3138 Aristarchus,708 Demas,1214 Lucas, my fellow laborers.4904

25 The grace5485 of our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ5547 be with your5216 spirit.4151 Amen.281 Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.

第1章

1 耶穌基督[Jesus Christ]被囚的保羅,同我們的[our]兄弟提摩太寫信給我們所親愛的同工腓利門,

2我們所親愛的[our beloved]亞腓亞並與我們同當兵的亞基布,以及在你家的教會;

3 恩典[Grace]、平安從神我們的父並主耶穌基督歸與你們。

4 我禱告的時候[always]提到你,為你感謝我的神,

5 因聽說你向主耶穌和眾聖徒有愛心和信心[thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints]

6 願你與人同享的信心[communication of thy faith]顯出功效,使人知道你們各樣善事都是在基督耶穌裏[in Christ Jesus]做的。

7 兄弟啊,我們[we]為你的愛心,大有快樂,大有安慰,因眾聖徒的心從你得了暢快。

8 我雖然靠著基督能大大[much]放膽吩咐你合宜的事;

9 然而像我這有年紀的保羅,現在又是為耶穌基督[Jesus Christ]被囚的,寧可憑著愛心求你,

10 就是為我在捆鎖中所生的兒子阿尼西謀求你。

11 他從前與你沒有益處,但如今與你我都有益處。

12已經再打發他[have sent again]。因此你要接待他,他是我親生的兒子[mine own bowels]

13 我本來有意將他留下,在我為福音所受的捆鎖中替你伺候我。

14 但不知道你的意思,我就不願意這樣行;叫你的[benefit][as]出於勉強,乃是出於甘心。

15 所以[therefore]他暫時離開[departed],或者是叫你永遠得著他,

16 從今[now]不再是僕人[servant],乃是高過僕人[servant],是親愛的兄弟。在我實在是如此,何況在你呢?這也不拘是按肉體說,是按主說,

17 因此[therefore]你若以我為同伴,就收納他,如同收納我一樣。

18 他若虧負你,或欠你甚麼,都歸在我的帳上,

19 我必償還。這是我保羅親筆寫的。我並不用對你說,連你自己也是虧欠於我。

20 兄弟啊,望你使我在主裏因你得快樂[joy];並望你使我的心在[Lord]裏得暢快。

21 我寫信給你,深信你必順服,知道你所要行的,[also]必過於我所說的。

22 此外你還要給我預備住處;因為我相信[trust]藉著你們的禱告,必得以[shall be given]到你們那裏去。

23 為基督耶穌與我同坐監的以巴弗問你安;

24 與我同工的馬可、亞里達古、底馬、路加、也都問你安。

25 願我們主耶穌基督的恩常在你們的靈[your spirit]裏。阿們。
