13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bands of the gospel:
13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bands of the gospel:
10 I beseech thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bands, Onesimus,
11 Who hath been heretofore unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable both to me and thee,
12 Whom I have sent back to thee. And do thou receive him as my own bowels.

1:13whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
1:13whom I was desirous of keeping with myself, that for thee he might minister to me in the bonds of the glad tidings;
1:13whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel:
1:13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel:
1:13whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
1:13whom I did wish to retain to myself, that in thy behalf he might minister to me in the bonds of the good news,
1:13Whom I would have retained with me, that in your stead he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel:
