14. and apart from thy mind I willed to do nothing, that as of necessity thy good deed may not be, but of willingness,
15. for perhaps because of this he did depart for an hour, that age-duringly thou mayest have him,
16. no more as a servant, but above a servant--a brother beloved, especially to me, and how much more to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord!
17. If, then, with me thou hast fellowship, receive him as me,
18. and if he did hurt to thee, or doth owe anything, this to me be reckoning;
19. I, Paul did write with my hand, I--I will repay; that I may not say that also thyself, besides, to me thou dost owe.
20. Yes, brother, may I have profit of thee in the Lord; refresh my bowels in the Lord;
21. having been confident in thy obedience I did write to thee, having known that also above what I may say thou wilt do;
22. and at the same time also prepare for me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted to you.
23. Salute thee doth Epaphras, (my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,)
24. Markus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lukas, my fellow-workmen!
25. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with your spirit! Amen.
