1 PAUL, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and brother Ti-mo’the-us, unto Phi-le’mon our dearly beloved and our fellow-worker, 2 And to our beloved Ap’phi-a and Archip’pus our fellow-labourer, and to the congregation in your house: 3 Grace be with you, and peace, from God our Father and our LORD Jesus Christ. 4 I thank my God, and always make mention of you in my prayers, 5 Since I have heard of your faith and love, which you have toward our LORD Jesus, and toward all saints; 6 That the participation of your faith may bear fruits in works, and in knowledge of everything that is good which you have in Jesus Christ. 7 For we have great joy and consolation in your love, and the hearts of the saints are refreshed.
