16. Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
17. If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.

20. Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
