Philemon 4-7

International Standard Version

Paul’s Prayer for Philemon

⁴ I always thank my God when I mention you^[a] in my prayers, ⁵ because I keep hearing about your love for all the saints and the faith that you have in the Lord Jesus. ⁶ I pray^[b] that your partnership in the faith may become effective as you fully acknowledge every blessing that is ours^[c] in the Messiah.^{[d] 7} For I have received considerable joy and encouragement from your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed, brother, through you.
