NASB
"I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my imprisonment,"
— Philemon 1:10, NASB
“I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:”
“I beseech thee for my child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus, ”
“I beg you for my child, whom I have become the father of in my chains, Onesimus,”
“I am appealing to you concerning my child, whose spiritual father I have become during my imprisonment, that is, Onesimus,”
“I beseech thee for my son, whom I have begotten in my bands, Onesimus,”
“My request is for my child Onesimus, the child of my chains,”
“I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:”
For I have come to have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.
Therefore, though I have enough confidence in Christ to order you to do what is proper,
yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you--since I am such a person as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Christ Jesus--
I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my imprisonment,
who formerly was useless to you, but now is useful both to you and to me.
I have sent him back to you in person, that is, sending my very heart,
whom I wished to keep with me, so that on your behalf he might minister to me in my imprisonment for the gospel;
