Philemon 1
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon our beloved and fellow-worker,
khrii. s.tasya yii"so rbandidaasa. h paulastiithiyanaamaa bhraataa ca priya. m sahakaari. na. m philiimona. m
2 and to Apphia our sister, and to Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the church in thy house:
priyaam aappiyaa. m sahasenaam aarkhippa. m philiimonasya g. rhe sthitaa. m samiti nca prati patra. m likhata. h|
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
asmaaka. m taata ii"svara. h prabhu ryii"sukhrii. s.ta"sca yu. smaan prati "saantim anugraha nca kriyaastaa. m|
4 I thank my God always, making mention of thee in my prayers,
prabhu. m yii"su. m prati sarvvaan pavitralokaan prati ca tava premavi"svaasayo rv. rttaanta. m ni"samyaaha. m
5 hearing of thy love, and of the faith which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all the saints;
praarthanaasamaye tava naamoccaarayan nirantara. m mame"svara. m dhanya. m vadaami|
6 that the fellowship of thy faith may become effectual, in the knowledge of every good thing which is in you, unto Christ.
asmaasu yadyat saujanya. m vidyate tat sarvva. m khrii. s.ta. m yii"su. m yat prati bhavatiiti j naanaaya tava vi"svaasamuulikaa daana"siilataa yat saphalaa bhavet tadaham icchaami|
7 For I had much joy and comfort in thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother.
he bhraata. h, tvayaa pavitralokaanaa. m praa. na aapyaayitaa abhavan etasmaat tava premnaasmaaka. m mahaan aananda. h saantvanaa ca jaata. h|
8 Wherefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to enjoin thee that which is befitting,
tvayaa yat karttavya. m tat tvaam aaj naapayitu. m yadyapyaha. m khrii. s.tenaatiivotsuko bhaveya. m tathaapi v. rddha
9 yet for love’s sake I rather beseech, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now a prisoner also of Christ Jesus:
idaanii. m yii"sukhrii. s.tasya bandidaasa"scaivambhuuto ya. h paula. h so. aha. m tvaa. m vinetu. m vara. m manye|
10 I beseech thee for my child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus,
ata. h "s. r"nkhalabaddho. aha. m yamajanaya. m ta. m madiiyatanayam onii. simam adhi tvaa. m vinaye|
11 who once was unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable to thee and to me:
sa puurvva. m tavaanupakaaraka aasiit kintvidaanii. m tava mama copakaarii bhavati|
12 whom I have sent back to thee in his own person, that is, my very heart:
tamevaaha. m tava samiipa. m pre. sayaami, ato madiiyapraa. nasvaruupa. h sa tvayaanug. rhyataa. m|
13 whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
susa. mvaadasya k. rte "s. r"nkhalabaddho. aha. m paricaarakamiva ta. m svasannidhau varttayitum aiccha. m|
14 but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will.
kintu tava saujanya. m yad balena na bhuutvaa svecchaayaa. h phala. m bhavet tadartha. m tava sammati. m vinaa kimapi karttavya. m naamanye|
15 For perhaps he was therefore parted [from thee] for a season, that thou shouldest have him for ever; (aiōnios g166)
ko jaanaati k. sa. nakaalaartha. m tvattastasya vicchedo. abhavad etasyaayam abhipraayo yat tvam anantakaalaartha. m ta. m lapsyase (aiōnios g166)
16 no longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much rather to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
puna rdaasamiva lapsyase tannahi kintu daasaat "sre. s.tha. m mama priya. m tava ca "saariirikasambandhaat prabhusambandhaacca tato. adhika. m priya. m bhraataramiva|
17 If then thou countest me a partner, receive him as myself.
ato heto ryadi maa. m sahabhaagina. m jaanaasi tarhi maamiva tamanug. rhaa. na|
18 But if he hath wronged thee at all, or oweth [thee] aught, put that to mine account;
tena yadi tava kimapyaparaaddha. m tubhya. m kimapi dhaaryyate vaa tarhi tat mameti viditvaa ga. naya|
19 I Paul write it with mine own hand, I will repay it: that I say not unto thee that thou owest to me even thine own self besides.
aha. m tat pari"sotsyaami, etat paulo. aha. m svahastena likhaami, yatastva. m svapraa. naan api mahya. m dhaarayasi tad vaktu. m necchaami|
20 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my heart in Christ.
bho bhraata. h, prabho. h k. rte mama vaa nchaa. m puuraya khrii. s.tasya k. rte mama praa. naan aapyaayaya|
21 Having confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say.
tavaaj naagraahitve vi"svasya mayaa etat likhyate mayaa yaducyate tato. adhika. m tvayaa kaari. syata iti jaanaami|
22 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I hope that through your prayers I shall be granted unto you.
tatkara. nasamaye madarthamapi vaasag. rha. m tvayaa sajjiikriyataa. m yato yu. smaaka. m praarthanaanaa. m phalaruupo vara ivaaha. m yu. smabhya. m daayi. sye mameti pratyaa"saa jaayate|
23 Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus, saluteth thee;
khrii. s.tasya yii"saa. h k. rte mayaa saha bandiripaaphraa
24 [and so do] Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow-workers.
mama sahakaari. no maarka aari. s.taarkho diimaa luuka"sca tvaa. m namaskaara. m vedayanti|
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
asmaaka. m prabho ryii"sukhrii. s.tasyaanugraho yu. smaakam aatmanaa saha bhuuyaat| aamen|
