1 Od Pavla, sužnja Isusa Hrista, i Timotija brata, Filimonu ljubaznom i pomagaču našem,
1 Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,
1 Παῦλος, δέσμιος Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ, καὶ Τιμόθεος ὁ ἀδελφός, Φιλήμονι τῷ ἀγαπητῷ καὶ συνεργῷ ἡμῶν
2 i Apfiji, sestri ljubaznoj, i Arhipu, našem drugaru u vojevanju, i domaćoj tvojoj crkvi:
2 to the beloved Apphia, to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the assembly in your house:
2 καὶ Ἀπφίᾳ τῇ ἀγαπητῇ καὶ Ἀρχίππῳ τῷ συστρατιώτῃ ἡμῶν καὶ τῇ κατ᾽ οἶκόν σου ἐκκλησίᾳ·
3 Blagodat vam i mir od Boga Oca našeg, i Gospoda Isusa Hrista.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ Θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
4 Zahvaljujem Bogu svom spominjući te svagda u molitvama svojim,
4 I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,
4 Εὐχαριστῶ τῷ Θεῷ μου πάντοτε μνείαν σου ποιούμενος ἐπὶ τῶν προσευχῶν μου,
5 čuvši ljubav tvoju i veru koju imaš ka Gospodu Isusu i k svima svetima:
5 hearing of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,
5 ἀκούων σου τὴν ἀγάπην καὶ τὴν πίστιν ἣν ἔχεις πρὸς τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν καὶ εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἁγίους,
6 Da tvoja vera, koju imamo zajedno, bude silna u poznanju svakog dobra, koje imate u Hristu Isusu.
6 that the fellowship of your faith may become effective in the knowledge of every good thing which is in us in Christ Jesus.
6 ὅπως ἡ κοινωνία τῆς πίστεώς σου ἐνεργὴς γένηται ἐν ἐπιγνώσει παντὸς ἀγαθοῦ τοῦ ἐν ἡμῖν εἰς Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν.
7 Jer imam veliku radost i utehu radi ljubavi tvoje, što srca svetih počinuše kroza te, brate!
7 For we have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
7 χάριν γὰρ ἔχομεν πολλὴν καὶ παράκλησιν ἐπὶ τῇ ἀγάπῃ σου, ὅτι τὰ σπλάγχνα τῶν ἁγίων ἀναπέπαυται διὰ σοῦ, ἀδελφέ.
8 Toga radi ako i imam veliku slobodu u Hristu da ti zapovedam šta je potrebno,
8 Therefore though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate,
8 Διό, πολλὴν ἐν Χριστῷ παρρησίαν ἔχων ἐπιτάσσειν σοι τὸ ἀνῆκον,
9 ali opet molim ljubavi radi, ja koji sam takav kao starac Pavle, a sad sužanj Isusa Hrista;
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.
9 διὰ τὴν ἀγάπην μᾶλλον παρακαλῶ· τοιοῦτος ὤν, ὡς Παῦλος πρεσβύτης, νυνὶ δὲ καὶ δέσμιος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ,
10 molimo te za svog sina Onisima, kog rodih u okovima svojim;
10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have become the father of in my chains,
10 παρακαλῶ σε περὶ τοῦ ἐμοῦ τέκνου, ὃν ἐγέννησα ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς μου, Ὀνήσιμον,
11 koji je tebi nekada bio nepotreban, a sad je i tebi i meni vrlo potreban, kog poslah tebi natrag;
11 who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.
11 τόν ποτέ σοι ἄχρηστον, νυνὶ δὲ σοὶ καὶ ἐμοὶ εὔχρηστον, ὃν ἀνέπεμψα·
12 a ti ga, to jest, moje srce primi.
12 I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,
12 σὺ δὲ αὐτόν, τοῦτ᾽ ἔστι τὰ ἐμὰ σπλάγχνα, προσλαβοῦ·
13 Ja ga htedoh da zadržim kod sebe, da mi mesto tebe posluži u okovima jevanđelja;
13 whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.
13 ὃν ἐγὼ ἐβουλόμην πρὸς ἐμαυτὸν κατέχειν, ἵνα ὑπὲρ σοῦ διακονῇ μοι ἐν τοῖς δεσμοῖς τοῦ εὐαγγελίου·
14 ali bez tvoje volje ne htedoh ništa činiti, da ne bi tvoje dobro bilo kao za nevolju, nego od dobre volje.
14 But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
14 χωρὶς δὲ τῆς σῆς γνώμης οὐδὲν ἠθέλησα ποιῆσαι, ἵνα μὴ ὡς κατὰ ἀνάγκην τὸ ἀγαθόν σου ᾖ, ἀλλὰ κατὰ ἑκούσιον.
15 Jer može biti da se za to rastade s tobom na neko vreme da ga dobiješ večno,
15 For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever,
15 τάχα γὰρ διὰ τοῦτο ἐχωρίσθη πρὸς ὥραν, ἵνα αἰώνιον αὐτὸν ἀπέχῃς,
16 ne više kao roba, nego više od roba, brata ljubaznog, a osobito meni, a kamoli tebi, i po telu i u Gospodu
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.
16 οὐκέτι ὡς δοῦλον, ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὲρ δοῦλον, ἀδελφὸν ἀγαπητόν, μάλιστα ἐμοί, πόσῳ δὲ μᾶλλον σοὶ καὶ ἐν σαρκὶ καὶ ἐν Κυρίῳ!
17 Ako dakle držiš mene za svog drugara, primi njega kao mene.
17 If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
17 εἰ οὖν με ἔχεις κοινωνόν, προσλαβοῦ αὐτὸν ὡς ἐμέ.
18 Ako li ti u čemu skrivi, ili je dužan, to na mene zapiši.
18 But if he has wronged you at all or owes you anything, put that to my account.
18 εἰ δέ τι ἠδίκησέ σε ἢ ὀφείλει, τοῦτο ἐμοὶ ἐλλόγει·
19 Ja Pavle napisah rukom svojom, ja ću platiti: da ti ne kažem da si i sam sebe meni dužan.
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).
19 ἐγὼ Παῦλος ἔγραψα τῇ ἐμῇ χειρί, ἐγὼ ἀποτίσω· ἵνα μὴ λέγω σοι ὅτι καὶ σεαυτόν μοι προσοφείλεις.
20 Da brate! Da imam korist od tebe u Gospodu, razveseli srce moje u Gospodu.
20 Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in the Lord.
20 ναί, ἀδελφέ, ἐγώ σου ὀναίμην ἐν Κυρίῳ· ἀνάπαυσόν μου τὰ σπλάγχνα ἐν Κυρίῳ.
21 Uzdajući se u tvoju poslušnost napisah ti znajući da ćeš još više učiniti nego što govorim.
21 Having confidence in your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.
21 Πεποιθὼς τῇ ὑπακοῇ σου ἔγραψά σοι, εἰδὼς ὅτι καὶ ὑπὲρ ὃ λέγω ποιήσεις.
22 A uz to ugotovi mi i konak; jer se nadam da ću za vaše molitve biti darovan vama.
22 Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
22 ἅμα δὲ καὶ ἑτοίμαζέ μοι ξενίαν· ἐλπίζω γὰρ ὅτι διὰ τῶν προσευχῶν ὑμῶν χαρισθήσομαι ὑμῖν.
23 Pozdravlja te Epafras koji je sa mnom sužanj u Hristu Isusu,
23 Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,
23 Ἀσπάζεταί σε Ἐπαφρᾶς ὁ συναιχμάλωτός μου ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ,
24 Marko, Aristarh, Dimas, Luka, pomagači moji.
24 as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, and Luke, my fellow workers.
24 Μᾶρκος, Ἀρίσταρχος, Δημᾶς, Λουκᾶς, οἱ συνεργοί μου.
25 Blagodat Gospoda našeg Isusa Hrista sa duhom vašim. Amin.
25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
25 Ἡ χάρις τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ μετὰ τοῦ πνεύματος ὑμῶν· ἀμήν.

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.
