Philemon 15-17

Tree of Life Version

¹⁵ For perhaps he was separated from you for a while in order that you might have him back forever, ¹⁶ no longer as a slave but more than a slave—as a beloved brother, especially to me but even more so to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

¹⁷ So if you consider me a partner, welcome him as you would welcome me.
