Notes on this text (3)
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
- Exodus 36–39 follow the Septuagint's order; the digital source has no verse divisions there, so Exodus 36:8–end and chapters 37, 38 and 39 each appear as one block.
- Not shown: the lectionary pericope numbers (зача́ло) and the marginal glosses of the digital source. The Prayer of Manasseh stands at the end of 2 Chronicles (36:24), as in the Slavonic Bible; the prologue of Sirach and the opening verse of Lamentations are joined to verse 1.

1 Па́ѵелъ ю҆́зникъ і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́въ, и҆ тїмоѳе́й бра́тъ, фїлимо́нꙋ возлю́бленномꙋ и҆ споспѣ́шникꙋ на́шемꙋ,
1 PABLO, prisionero de Jesucristo, y el hermano Timoteo, á Filemón amado, y coadjutor nuestro;
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,
2 и҆ а҆пфі́и сестрѣ̀ возлю́бленнѣй, и҆ а҆рхі́ппꙋ сово́инственникꙋ на́шемꙋ, и҆ дома́шней твое́й цр҃кви:
2 Y á la amada Apphia, y á Archîpo, compañero de nuestra milicia, y á la iglesia [que está] en tu casa:
2 to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house:
3 блгⷣть ва́мъ и҆ ми́ръ ѿ бг҃а ѻ҆ц҃а̀ на́шегѡ, и҆ гдⷭ҇а і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀.
3 Gracia á vosotros y paz de Dios nuestro Padre, y del Señor Jesucristo.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Благодарю̀ бг҃а моего̀, всегда̀ па́мѧть ѡ҆ тебѣ̀ творѧ̀ въ моли́твахъ мои́хъ,
4 Doy gracias á mi Dios, haciendo siempre memoria de ti en mis oraciones.
4 I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
5 слы́шавъ любо́вь твою̀ и҆ вѣ́рꙋ, ю҆́же и҆́маши ко гдⷭ҇ꙋ і҆и҃сꙋ и҆ ко всѣ̑мъ ст҃ы̑мъ,
5 Oyendo tu caridad, y la fe que tienes en el Señor Jesús, y para con todos los santos;
5 hearing of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
6 ꙗ҆́кѡ да ѻ҆бще́нїе твоеѧ̀ вѣ́ры дѣ́йственно бꙋ́детъ въ ра́зꙋмѣ всѧ́кагѡ бл҃га, є҆́же въ ва́съ, ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ.
6 Para que la comunicación de tu fe sea eficaz, en el conocimiento de todo el bien que está en vosotros, por Cristo Jesús.
6 that the fellowship of your faith may become effective in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.
7 Ра́дость бо и҆́мамъ мно́гꙋ и҆ ᲂу҆тѣше́нїе ѡ҆ любвѝ твое́й, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆трѡ́бы ст҃ы́хъ почи́ша тобо́ю, бра́те.
7 Porque tenemos gran gozo y consolación de tu caridad, de que por ti, oh hermano, han sido recreadas las entrañas de los santos.
7 For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
8 Сегѡ̀ ра́ди мно́гое дерзнове́нїе и҆мѣ́ѧ во хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ повелѣва́ти тебѣ̀, є҆́же потре́бно є҆́сть,
8 Por lo cual, aunque tengo mucha resolución en Cristo para mandarte lo que conviene,
8 Therefore though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
9 любве́ же ра́ди па́че молю̀, тако́въ сы́й ꙗ҆́коже па́ѵелъ ста́рецъ, нн҃ѣ же и҆ ᲂу҆́зникъ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀:
9 Ruégo[te] más bien por amor, siendo tal cual [soy], Pablo viejo, y aun ahora prisionero de Jesucristo:
9 yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
10 молю́ тѧ ѡ҆ мое́мъ ча́дѣ, є҆го́же роди́хъ во ᲂу҆́захъ мои́хъ ѻ҆ни́сїма,
10 Ruégote por mi hijo Onésimo, que he engendrado en mis prisiones,
10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have become the father of in my chains,
11 и҆ногда̀ тебѣ̀ непотре́бнаго, нн҃ѣ же тебѣ̀ и҆ мнѣ̀ благопотре́бна, є҆го́же возпосла́хъ тебѣ̀,
11 El cual en otro tiempo te fué inútil, mas ahora á ti y á mí es útil;
11 who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.
12 ты́ же є҆го̀, си́рѣчь мою̀ ᲂу҆тро́бꙋ, прїимѝ.
12 El cual te vuelvo á enviar; tú pues, recíbele como á mis entrañas.
12 I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,
13 Є҆го́же а҆́зъ хотѣ́хъ ᲂу҆ себє̀ держа́ти, да вмѣ́стѡ тебє̀ послꙋ́житъ мѝ во ᲂу҆́захъ бл҃говѣствова́нїѧ:
13 Yo quisiera detenerle conmigo, para que en lugar de ti me sirviese en las prisiones del evangelio;
13 whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
14 без̾ твоеѧ́ же во́ли ничто́же восхотѣ́хъ сотвори́ти, да не а҆́ки по нꙋ́жди бл҃го́е твоѐ бꙋ́детъ, но по во́ли.
14 Mas nada quise hacer sin tu consejo, porque tu beneficio no fuese como de necesidad, sino voluntario.
14 But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
15 Не́гли бо ра́ди сегѡ̀ разлꙋчи́сѧ на ча́съ, да вѣ́чна того̀ прїи́меши,
15 Porque acaso por esto se ha apartado de ti por [algún] tiempo, para que le recibieses para siempre;
15 For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever,
16 не ктомꙋ̀ а҆́ки раба̀, но вы́ше раба̀, бра́та возлю́бленна, па́че же мнѣ̀, кольми́ же па́че тебѣ̀, и҆ по пло́ти и҆ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ.
16 No ya como siervo, antes más que siervo, [como] hermano amado, mayormente de mí, pero cuánto más de ti, en la carne y en el Señor.
16 no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
17 А҆́ще ᲂу҆̀бо и҆́маши менѐ ѻ҆́бщника, прїимѝ сего̀ ꙗ҆́коже менѐ.
17 Así que, si me tienes por compañero, recíbele como á mí.
17 If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
18 А҆́ще же въ чесо́мъ ѡ҆би́дѣ тебѐ, и҆лѝ до́лженъ є҆́сть, мнѣ̀ сїѐ вмѣнѝ.
18 Y si en algo te dañó, ó te debe, ponlo á mi cuenta.
18 But if he has wronged you at all or owes you anything, put that to my account.
19 А҆́зъ па́ѵелъ написа́хъ рꙋко́ю мое́ю: а҆́зъ возда́мъ: да не рекꙋ̀ тебѣ̀, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ са́мъ себѐ мѝ є҆сѝ до́лженъ.
19 Yo Pablo lo escribí de mi mano, yo [lo] pagaré: por no decirte que aun á ti mismo te me debes demás.
19 I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).
20 Є҆́й, бра́те, а҆́зъ да полꙋчꙋ̀ є҆́же прошꙋ̀ ᲂу҆ тебє̀ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ: ᲂу҆поко́й мою̀ ᲂу҆тро́бꙋ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ.
20 Sí, hermano, góceme yo de ti en el Señor; recrea mis entrañas en el Señor.
20 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.
21 Надѣ́ѧвсѧ на послꙋша́нїе твоѐ написа́хъ тебѣ̀, вѣ́дый, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ па́че, є҆́же глаго́лю, сотвори́ши.
21 Te he escrito confiando en tu obediencia, sabiendo que aun harás más de lo que digo.
21 Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.
22 Кꙋ́пнѡ же и҆ ᲂу҆гото́ви мѝ ѡ҆би́тель: ᲂу҆пова́ю бо, ꙗ҆́кѡ моли́твами ва́шими дарова́нъ бꙋ́дꙋ ва́мъ.
22 Y asimismo prepárame también alojamiento; porque espero que por vuestras oraciones os tengo de ser concedido.
22 Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
23 Цѣлꙋ́етъ тѧ̀ є҆пафра́съ, сплѣ́нникъ мо́й ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ,
23 Te saludan Epafras, mi compañero en la prisión por Cristo Jesús,
23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,
24 ма́рко, а҆рїста́рхъ, дима́съ, лꙋка̀, споспѣ̑шницы моѝ.
24 Marcos, Aristarco, Demas y Lucas, mis cooperadores.
24 as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
25 Блгⷣть гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀ со дꙋ́хомъ ва́шимъ. А҆ми́нь.
25 La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo sea con vuestro espíritu. Amén. A Filemón fué enviada de Roma por Onésimo, siervo.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
These things are said to a master in behalf of a servant. Immediately at the outset, he has pulled down his spirit, and not suffered him to be ashamed, he has quenched his anger; calling himself a prisoner, he strikes him with compunction, and makes him collect himself, and makes it appear that present things are nothing.
