Philemon 1:9
7 I take great joy and encouragement in your love, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints.
8 So although in Christ I am bold enough to order you to do what is proper,
I prefer to appeal on the basis of love. For I, Paul, am now aged, and a prisoner of Christ Jesus as well.
10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whose father I became while I was in chains.
11 Formerly he was useless to you, but now he has become useful both to you and to me.
