Philemon 8-10

21st Century King James Version

⁸ Therefore, though I might be bold enough in Christ to enjoin thee to do that which is befitting,

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

¹⁰ I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds.
