Whom I would gladly have kept with me, that he might have ministered unto me as thou wouldst have done, in the bonds of the gospel. But I would do nothing without thy knowledge, that thy kindness might not be as it were forced, but voluntary. For perhaps he was therefore parted from thee for a season, that thou mightest receive him for ever: not now as a servant, but above a servant, a dear brother, especially to me, and how much more to thee both in the flesh and in the Lord. If therefore thou accountest me a friend, receive him as thou wouldst receive me. If he hath wronged thee in any thing, or is indebted to thee, place it to my accompt: I Paul have written it with my own hand, I will pay it: not to say that thou indeed owest even thy own self to me. Yea, my brother, let me enjoy this satisfaction from thee in the Lord: and thus refresh my bowels in the Lord. Being fully persuaded of thy compliance, I have written to thee; knowing that thou wilt indeed do more than I ask.
