Paul’s Plea for Onesimus

8 Accordingly, though I am ^jbold enough in Christ to command you to do what is required,

9 yet for love’s sake I prefer to appeal to you—I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner also for Christ Jesus—

20 Yes, brother, I want some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

Final Greetings

23 ^xEpaphras, my ^yfellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends greetings to you,

25 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
