For we have great joy and consolation in your love, because the hearts of the saints are refreshed by you, brother.

Yet for love's sake I rather beseech you, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.

I beseech you for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:

For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that you should receive him forever;

At the same time prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
