[This letter is from] Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, [and is being sent] to Philemon our dearly loved [brother] and fellow-worker,

who was formerly unprofitable to thee, but now profitable both to thee and to me; whom I have sent back to thee:

whom I have sent back to thee in his own person, that is, my very heart:

I send you this letter relying on your obedience; I know you will do even more than I tell you.

And Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow-workers, send theirs.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirits, Amen. {Here ends the Epistle of Saint Paul the Apostle unto Philemon, Sent from Rome by Onesimus, a servant.}
