Philemon 1:10 in Context — Philemon 1

8 C’est pourquoi, bien que j’aie en Christ toute liberté de te prescrire ce qui est convenable,

9 c’est de préférence au nom de la charité que je t’adresse une prière, étant ce que je suis, Paul, vieillard, et de plus maintenant prisonnier de Jésus-Christ.

10 Je te prie pour mon enfant, que j’ai engendré étant dans les chaînes, Onésime,

11 qui autrefois t’a été inutile, mais qui maintenant est utile, et à toi et à moi.

12 Je te le renvoie lui, mes propres entrailles.
