Philemon 9-11

New American Standard Bible

⁹ yet for love’s sake I rather ^(A)appeal to you—since I am such a person as Paul, ^[a]an ^(B)old man, and now also ^(C)a prisoner of ^(D)Christ Jesus—

Plea for Onesimus, a Free Man

¹⁰ I ^(E)appeal to you for my ^[b](F)son ^[c](G)Onesimus, whom I ^[d]fathered in my ^[e]imprisonment, ¹¹ who previously was useless to you, but now is useful both to you and to me.
