Philemon 16-18

International Children’s Bible

¹⁶ not to be a slave, but better than a slave, to be a loved brother. I love him very much. But you will love him even more. You will love him as a man and as a brother in the Lord.

¹⁷ If you think of me as your friend, then accept Onesimus back. Welcome him as you would welcome me. ¹⁸ If Onesimus has done anything wrong to you, charge that to me. If he owes you anything, charge that to me.
