Philemon 17 in context

Philemon 14–20

14

But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.

15

For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever,

16

no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

17
Selected verse

If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.

18

But if he has wronged you at all or owes you anything, put that to my account.

19

I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).

20

Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.
