    12I have sent him(who is my very heart) back to you.

    13I wanted to keep him with me so that he could serve me in your place during my imprisonment for the sake of the gospel.

    14However, without your consent I did not want to do anything, so that your good deed would not be out of compulsion, but from your own willingness.

    15For perhaps it was for this reason that he was separated from you for a little while, so that you would have him back eternally,

    16no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, as a dear brother. He is especially so to me, and even more so to you now, both humanly speaking and in the Lord.

    17Therefore if you regard me as a partner, accept him as you would me.

    18Now if he has defrauded you of anything or owes you anything, charge what he owes to me.
