Whom I would have retained with me, to serve me in thy stead, in the bonds of the gospel. But I would do nothing without thy consent; that thy good deed might not be, as it were, by constraint, but willingly. And perhaps for this end was he separated for a season, that thou mightest have him for ever; No longer as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, especially to me; and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord? If therefore thou accountest me a partner, receive him as myself. If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee any thing, put that to my account. I Paul have written with my own hand; I will repay it; not to say unto thee, that thou owest also thyself to me besides. Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in Christ. Having confidence of thy obedience I have written to thee, knowing that thou wilt do even more than I say.
