 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy
our
brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
2
 and to
our
beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:
3
 grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4
 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
5
 hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus, and toward all saints;
6
 that the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
7
 For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
8
 Wherefore, though I might be much bold in Christ to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
9
 yet for love's sake I rather beseech
thee,
being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10
 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
11
 which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
12
 whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
13
 whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
14
 but without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
15
 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;
16
 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
 If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.
18
 If he hath wronged thee, or oweth
thee
aught, put that on mine account;
19
 I Paul have written
it
with mine own hand, I will repay
it:
albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
20
 Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
21
 Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.
22
 But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your prayers I shall be given unto you.
23
 There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Christ Jesus;
24
 Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.
25
 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ
be
with your spirit. Amen.
A Psalm of David.
1
 I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O L
ORD
, will I sing.
2
 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart.
3
 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside;
it
shall not cleave to me.
4
 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked
person.
5
 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer.
6
 Mine eyes
shall be
upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.
7
 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.
8
 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the L
ORD
.
20
 Where no wood is,
there
the fire goeth out: so where
there is
no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.
1
 I
am
the man
that
hath seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
2
 He hath led me, and brought
me into
darkness, but not
into
light.
3
 Surely against me is he turned; he turneth his hand
against me
all the day.
4
 My flesh and my skin hath he made old: he hath broken my bones.
5
 He hath builded against me, and compassed
me
with gall and travail.
6
 He hath set me in dark places, as
they that be
dead of old.
7
 He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.
8
 Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
9
 He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
10
 He
was
unto me
as
a bear lying in wait,
and as
a lion in secret places.
11
 He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.
12
 He hath bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
13
 He hath caused the arrows of his quiver to enter into my reins.
14
 I was a derision to all my people;
and
their song all the day.
15
 He hath filled me with bitterness, he hath made me drunken with wormwood.
16
 He hath also broken my teeth with gravel stones, he hath covered me with ashes.
17
 And thou hast removed my soul far off from peace: I forgat prosperity.
18
 And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the L
ORD
:
19
 Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.
20
 My soul hath
them
still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.
21
 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
22
Â
It is of
the L
ORD
's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
23
Â
They are
new every morning: great
is
thy faithfulness.
24
 The L
ORD
is
my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25
 The L
ORD
is
good unto them that wait for him, to the soul
that
seeketh him.
26
Â
It is
good that
a man
should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the L
ORD
.
27
Â
It is
good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28
 He sitteth alone and keepeth silence, because he hath borne
it
upon him.
29
 He putteth his mouth in the dust; if so be there may be hope.
30
 He giveth
his
cheek to him that smiteth him: he is filled full with reproach.
31
 For the Lord will not cast off for ever:
32
 But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies.
33
 For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
34
 To crush under his feet all the prisoners of the earth,
35
 To turn aside the right of a man before the face of the most High,
36
 To subvert a man in his cause, the Lord approveth not.
37
 Who
is
he
that
saith, and it cometh to pass,
when
the Lord commandeth
it
not?
38
 Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?
39
 Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
40
 Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the L
ORD
.
41
 Let us lift up our heart with
our
hands unto God in the heavens.
42
 We have transgressed and have rebelled: thou hast not pardoned.
43
 Thou hast covered with anger, and persecuted us: thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.
44
 Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that
our
prayer should not pass through.
45
 Thou hast made us
as
the offscouring and refuse in the midst of the people.
46
 All our enemies have opened their mouths against us.
47
 Fear and a snare is come upon us, desolation and destruction.
48
 Mine eye runneth down with rivers of water for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49
 Mine eye trickleth down, and ceaseth not, without any intermission,
50
 Till the L
ORD
look down, and behold from heaven.
51
 Mine eye affecteth mine heart because of all the daughters of my city.
52
 Mine enemies chased me sore, like a bird, without cause.
53
 They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me.
54
 Waters flowed over mine head;
then
I said, I am cut off.
55
 I called upon thy name, O L
ORD
, out of the low dungeon.
56
 Thou hast heard my voice: hide not thine ear at my breathing, at my cry.
57
 Thou drewest near in the day
that
I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.
58
 O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul; thou hast redeemed my life.
59
 O L
ORD
, thou hast seen my wrong: judge thou my cause.
60
 Thou hast seen all their vengeance
and
all their imaginations against me.
61
 Thou hast heard their reproach, O L
ORD
,
and
all their imaginations against me;
62
 The lips of those that rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.
63
 Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I
am
their musick.
64
 Render unto them a recompence, O L
ORD
, according to the work of their hands.
65
 Give them sorrow of heart, thy curse unto them.
66
 Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens of the L
ORD
.
1
 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2
 hath in these last days spoken unto us by
his
Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3
 who being the brightness of
his
glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
4
 being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5
 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
6
 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
7
 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8
 But unto the Son
he saith,
Thy throne, O God,
is
for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness
is
the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9
 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God,
even
thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10
 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
11
 they shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
12
 and as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
13
 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
14
 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
