4 I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
5 hearing of your love, and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints;
6 that the fellowship of your faith may become effective, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us, in Christ Jesus.
7 For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
8 Therefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
9 yet for love`s sake I rather beg, being such a one as Paul, the aged, and now a prisoner also of Christ Jesus.
10 I beg you for my child, whom I have fathered in my bonds, Onesimus,
