1	為基督耶穌被囚的保羅，同兄弟提摩太寫信給我們所親愛的同工腓利門，
			Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
		2	和妹子亞腓亞並與我們同當兵的亞基布，以及在你家的教會。
			And to beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:
		3	願恩惠、平安從神我們的父和主耶穌基督歸與你們！
			Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
		4	我禱告的時候提到你，常為你感謝我的神；
			I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
		5	因聽說你的愛心並你向主耶穌和眾聖徒的信心（或作：因聽說你向主耶穌和眾聖徒有愛心有信心）。
			Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
		6	願你與人所同有的信心顯出功效，使人知道你們各樣善事都是為基督做的。
			That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
		7	兄弟啊，我為你的愛心，大有快樂，大得安慰，因眾聖徒的心從你得了暢快。
			For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
		8	我雖然靠著基督能放膽吩咐你合宜的事；
			Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
		9	然而像我這有年紀的保羅，現在又是為基督耶穌被囚的，寧可憑著愛心求你，
			Yet for love's sake I rather beseech , being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
		10	就是為我在捆鎖中所生的兒子阿尼西母（就是有益處的意思）求你。
			I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
		11	他從前與你沒有益處，但如今與你我都有益處。
			Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
		12	我現在打發他親自回你那裡去，他是我心上的人。
			Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
		13	我本來有意將他留下，在我為福音所受的捆鎖中替你伺候我。
			Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
		14	但不知道你的意思，我就不願意這樣行，叫你的善行不是出於勉強，乃是出於甘心。
			But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
		15	他暫時離開你，或者是叫你永遠得著他，
			For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
		16	不再是奴僕，乃是高過奴僕，是親愛的兄弟。在我實在是如此，何況在你呢！這也不拘是按肉體說，是按主說，
			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	你若以我為同伴，就收納他，如同收納我一樣。
			If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
		18	他若虧負你，或欠你什麼，都歸在我的賬上，
			If he hath wronged thee, or oweth ought, put that on mine account;
		19	我必償還。這是我保羅親筆寫的。我並不用對你說，連你自己也是虧欠於我。
			I Paul have written with mine own hand, I will repay : albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
		20	兄弟啊，望你使我在主裡因你得快樂（或作：益處）並望你使我的心在基督裡得暢快。
			Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
		21	我寫信給你，深信你必順服，知道你所要行的，必過於我所說的。
			Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
		22	此外你還要給我預備住處；因為我盼望藉著你們的禱告，必蒙恩到你們那裡去。
			But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
		23	為基督耶穌與我同坐監的以巴弗問你安。
			There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;
		24	與我同工的馬可、亞里達古、底馬、路加、也都問你安。
			Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.
		25	願我們主耶穌基督的恩常在你的心裡。阿們！
			The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with your spirit. Amen. from Rome to Philemon, by Onesimus a servant.
