Philemon 16-18
English Standard Version
16 (A)no longer as a bondservant[a] but more than a bondservant, as (B)a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much more to you, (C)both in the flesh and in the Lord.
17 So if you consider me (D)your partner, receive him as you would receive me. 18 If he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, charge that to my account.
