I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
1:5 ⧉ ⤴︎ ἀκούων σου τὴν ἀγάπην καὶ τὴν πίστιν ἣν ἔχεις πρὸς τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν καὶ εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἁγίους

1:8 ⧉ ⤴︎ Διὸ πολλὴν ἐν Χριστῷ παρρησίαν ἔχων ἐπιτάσσειν σοι τὸ ἀνῆκον

ወብየ በእንተ ዝንቱ ሞገስ ዐቢይ በክርስቶስ ከመ አአዝዝከ ትእዛዘ ጽድቅ ።
Therefore though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
1:9 ⧉ ⤴︎ διὰ τὴν ἀγάπην μᾶλλον παρακαλῶ τοιοῦτος ὢν ὡς Παῦλος πρεσβύτης νυνὶ δὲ καὶ δέσμιος Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ
propter caritatem magis obsecro , cum sis talis , ut Paulus senex , nunc autem et vinctus Jesu Christi :

yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
1:10 ⧉ ⤴︎ παρακαλῶ σε περὶ τοῦ ἐμοῦ τέκνου ὃν ἐγέννησα ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς Ὀνήσιμον

I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have become the father of in my chains,

who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.

I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,
1:13 ⧉ ⤴︎ ὃν ἐγὼ ἐβουλόμην πρὸς ἐμαυτὸν κατέχειν ἵνα ὑπὲρ σοῦ μοι διακονῇ ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς τοῦ εὐαγγελίου

whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
1:14 ⧉ ⤴︎ χωρὶς δὲ τῆς σῆς γνώμης οὐδὲν ἠθέλησα ποιεῖν ἵνα μὴ ὡς κατὰ ἀνάγκην τὸ ἀγαθόν σου ᾖ ἀλλὰ κατὰ ἑκούσιον

But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
1:15 ⧉ ⤴︎ τάχα γὰρ διὰ τοῦτο ἐχωρίσθη πρὸς ὥραν ἵνα αἰώνιον αὐτὸν ἀπέχῃς
Forsitan enim ideo discessit ad horam a te , ut aeternum illum reciperes :
ወዮጊ በበይነ ዝንቱ ኀደገከ ለሰዓት ከመ ይኩንከ ለዓለም ።
For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever,
1:16 ⧉ ⤴︎ οὐκέτι ὡς δοῦλον ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὲρ δοῦλον ἀδελφὸν ἀγαπητόν μάλιστα ἐμοί πόσῳ δὲ μᾶλλον σοὶ καὶ ἐν σαρκὶ καὶ ἐν Κυρίῳ

no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
1:17 ⧉ ⤴︎ εἰ οὖν με ἔχεις κοινωνόν προσλαβοῦ αὐτὸν ὡς ἐμέ
Si ergo habes me socium , suscipe illum sicut me :

If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
1:18 ⧉ ⤴︎ εἰ δέ τι ἠδίκησέν σε ἢ ὀφείλει τοῦτο ἐμοὶ ἐλλόγα

But if he has wronged you at all or owes you anything, put that to my account.
1:19 ⧉ ⤴︎ ἐγὼ Παῦλος ἔγραψα τῇ ἐμῇ χειρί ἐγὼ ἀποτίσω ἵνα μὴ λέγω σοι ὅτι καὶ σεαυτόν μοι προσοφείλεις

I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).
1:20 ⧉ ⤴︎ ναὶ ἀδελφέ ἐγώ σου ὀναίμην ἐν Κυρίῳ ἀνάπαυσόν μου τὰ σπλάγχνα ἐν Χριστῷ

Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.

Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.
1:22 ⧉ ⤴︎ ἅμα δὲ καὶ ἑτοίμαζέ μοι ξενίαν ἐλπίζω γὰρ ὅτι διὰ τῶν προσευχῶν ὑμῶν χαρισθήσομαι ὑμῖν
