But I think it is necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, co- worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger, whom you sent to take care of my needs.

But I think it’s necessary to send Epaphroditus back to you. He is my brother in the Lord. He is a worker and a soldier of Christ together with me. He is also your messenger. You sent him to take care of my needs.

I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,

Meanwhile, I thought I should send Epaphroditus back to you. He is a true brother, co worker, and fellow soldier. And he was your messenger to help me in my need.

But I considered it necessary to send you Epaphroditus— my brother, coworker, and fellow soldier, as well as your messenger and minister to my need—

But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my need,

But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need,

But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things[ which were sent] from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.

Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy[ our] brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,And to[ our] beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the church in thy house:

And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and[ with] other my fellowlabourers, whose names[ are] in the book of life.

And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only[ are my] fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

As the cold of snow in the time of harvest,[ so is] a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.

As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;

For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry,[ ye are] God’s building.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of[ this] life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.

And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith:

I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.

Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?I robbed other churches, taking wages[ of them], to do you service.And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied: and in all[ things] I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and[ so] will I keep[ myself].

And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence which[ I have] in you.Whether[ any do enquire] of Titus,[ he is] my partner and fellowhelper concerning you: or our brethren[ be enquired of, they are] the messengers of the churches,[ and] the glory of Christ.
