III. The Promise of Paul to Philemon.... 17-25

Phm 1:17 If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.

Phm 1:18 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;

Phm 1:19 I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.

Phm 1:20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

Phm 1:21 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.

Phm 1:22 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.

Phm 1:23 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;

Phm 1:24 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.

Phm 1:25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. <Written from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.>
