腓利门书
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
問安
1 為基督耶穌被囚禁的保羅,和提摩太弟兄,寫信給我們所愛的,又一同作工的腓利門, 2 和亞腓亞姊妹,並我們的戰友亞基布,以及在你家裡的教會。 3 願恩惠平安從我們的父 神和主耶穌基督臨到你們。
稱讚腓利門
4-5 我聽見你對主耶穌和眾聖徒有愛心和信心,我每逢禱告提到你的時候,就常常感謝我的 神。 6 願你與眾人分享你的信心的時候,會產生功效,使我們可以知道在我們中間的一切善事,都是為基督作的。 7 弟兄啊,眾聖徒的心既然從你得到舒暢,我也因你的愛心,得到更大的喜樂和安慰。
為歐尼西慕請求
8 我在基督裡雖然可以放膽吩咐你作應作的事, 9 然而像我這上了年紀的保羅,現在又是為基督耶穌被囚禁的,寧願憑著愛心請求你, 10 就是為我在囚禁時所生的兒子歐尼西慕求你; 11 他從前對你沒有甚麼好處,但現在對你我都有好處。 12 我現在打發他親自回到你那裡去;他是我所心愛的。 13 我本來想把他留在我這裡,使他在我為福音被囚禁時,可以替你服事我。 14 但還沒有得到你的同意,我就不願意這樣作,好叫你的善行不是出於勉強,而是出於甘心。 15 也許他暫時離開你,正是為了使你永遠得著他, 16 不再是奴隸,而是高過奴隸,是親愛的弟兄。對我固然是這樣,對你來說,不論按肉身或在主內的關係,更是這樣。
17 所以,你要是把我看作同伴,就接納他好像接納我一樣。 18 如果他使你受了損失,或欠你甚麼,都記在我的帳上。 19 “我必償還”,這是我保羅親手寫的。用不著我說,甚至你的生命,你也是欠我的。 20 所以弟兄啊!讓我在主裡得到你的幫助,使我的心在基督裡得著暢快。
21 我深信你會聽從,也知道你所作的必超過我所說的,因此才寫信給你。 22 同時,還請你為我預備住的地方,因為我盼望藉著你們的禱告,可以獲得釋放到你們那裡去。
問候的話
23 為基督耶穌的緣故和我一同坐監的以巴弗, 24 以及我的同工馬可、亞里達古、底馬、路加都問候你。 25 願主耶穌基督的恩惠常與你們同在。(“與你們同在”原文作“與你們的心靈同在”;好些抄本在這書末有“阿們”一詞。)

Chinese New Version (Simplified)
问安
1 为基督耶稣被囚禁的保罗,和提摩太弟兄,写信给我们所爱的,又一同作工的腓利门, 2 和亚腓亚姊妹,并我们的战友亚基布,以及在你家里的教会。 3 愿恩惠平安从我们的父 神和主耶稣基督临到你们。
称赞腓利门
4-5 我听见你对主耶稣和众圣徒有爱心和信心,我每逢祷告提到你的时候,就常常感谢我的 神。 6 愿你与众人分享你的信心的时候,会产生功效,使我们可以知道在我们中间的一切善事,都是为基督作的。 7 弟兄啊,众圣徒的心既然从你得到舒畅,我也因你的爱心,得到更大的喜乐和安慰。
为欧尼西慕请求
8 我在基督里虽然可以放胆吩咐你作应作的事, 9 然而像我这上了年纪的保罗,现在又是为基督耶稣被囚禁的,宁愿凭着爱心请求你, 10 就是为我在囚禁时所生的儿子欧尼西慕求你; 11 他从前对你没有甚么好处,但现在对你我都有好处。 12 我现在打发他亲自回到你那里去;他是我所心爱的。 13 我本来想把他留在我这里,使他在我为福音被囚禁时,可以替你服事我。 14 但还没有得到你的同意,我就不愿意这样作,好叫你的善行不是出于勉强,而是出于甘心。 15 也许他暂时离开你,正是为了使你永远得着他, 16 不再是奴隶,而是高过奴隶,是亲爱的弟兄。对我固然是这样,对你来说,不论按肉身或在主内的关系,更是这样。
17 所以,你要是把我看作同伴,就接纳他好象接纳我一样。 18 如果他使你受了损失,或欠你甚么,都记在我的帐上。 19 “我必偿还”,这是我保罗亲手写的。用不着我说,甚至你的生命,你也是欠我的。 20 所以弟兄啊!让我在主里得到你的帮助,使我的心在基督里得着畅快。
21 我深信你会听从,也知道你所作的必超过我所说的,因此才写信给你。 22 同时,还请你为我预备住的地方,因为我盼望借着你们的祷告,可以获得释放到你们那里去。
问候的话
23 为基督耶稣的缘故和我一同坐监的以巴弗, 24 以及我的同工马可、亚里达古、底马、路加都问候你。 25 愿主耶稣基督的恩惠常与你们同在。(“与你们同在”原文作“与你们的心灵同在”;好些抄本在这书末有“阿们”一词。)
Philemon
Complete Jewish Bible
1 From: Sha’ul, a prisoner for the sake of the Messiah Yeshua, and brother Timothy
To: Our dear fellow-worker Philemon, 2 along with sister Apphia, our fellow-soldier Archippus and the congregation that gathers in your home:
3 Grace and shalom to you from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
4 I thank my God every time I mention you in my prayers, Philemon, 5 for I am hearing about your love and commitment to the Lord Yeshua and to all God’s people. 6 I pray that the fellowship based on your commitment will produce full understanding of every good thing that is ours in union with the Messiah. 7 For your love has given me much joy and encouragement. Brother, you have refreshed the hearts of God’s people.
8 Therefore, I would not hesitate, in union with the Messiah, to direct you to do the thing you ought to do. 9 But since I Sha’ul, am the kind of person I am, an old man and now for the Messiah Yeshua’s sake a prisoner besides, I prefer to appeal to you on the basis of love. 10 My request to you concerns my son, of whom I became the father while here in prison, Onesimus. 11 His name means “useful,” and although he was once useless to you, he has now become most useful — not only to you but also to me; 12 so that in returning him to you I am sending a part of my very heart. 13 I would dearly have loved to keep him with me, in order for him to serve me in your place while I am in prison because of the Good News. 14 But I didn’t want to do anything without your consent, so that the good you do for me may be voluntary and not forced.
15 Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a brief period was so that you could have him back forever, 16 no longer as a slave but as more than a slave, as a dear brother. And that he is, especially to me. But how much dearer he must be to you, both humanly and in union with the Lord!
17 So if you are in fellowship with me, receive him as you would me. 18 And if he has wronged you in any way or owes you anything, charge it to me.
19 I, Sha’ul, write with my own hand. I will repay it.
(I won’t mention, of course, that you owe me your very life.) 20 Yes, brother, please do me this favor in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Messiah.
21 Trusting that you will respond positively, I write knowing that you will indeed do more than I am asking.
22 One more thing: please get a room ready for me. For I hope that through the prayers of you all God will give me a chance to visit you.
23 Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner for the sake of the Messiah Yeshua, sends greetings to you, 24 as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas and Luke, my fellow-workers.
25 The grace of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah be with your spirit.
