Philemon 15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ For perhaps he therefore departed for a season from thee, that thou mightest receive him again for ever:

¹⁶ Not now as a servant, but instead of a servant, a most dear brother, especially to me: but how much more to thee both in the flesh and in the Lord?

¹⁷ If therefore thou count me a partner, receive him as myself.
