Philemon 15-17
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
15 For perhaps for this reason he was separated for an hour: in order that you might receive him in full forever, 16 no longer as a slave, but beyond a slave, a beloved brother— especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord!
Accept Him As Me, And Charge His Debts To My Account
17 Therefore if you hold me as a partner, accept him as me.

Philemon 15-17
New International Version
15 Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back forever— 16 no longer as a slave,(A) but better than a slave, as a dear brother.(B) He is very dear to me but even dearer to you, both as a fellow man and as a brother in the Lord.
17 So if you consider me a partner,(C) welcome him as you would welcome me.
