Philemon 7-9

Darby Translation

⁷ For we have great thankfulness and encouragement through thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.

⁸ Wherefore having much boldness in Christ to enjoin thee what is fitting,

⁹ for love's sake I rather exhort, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also prisoner of Jesus Christ.
