Matthew(i)
10 I beseche the for my sonne Onesimus, whom I begat in my bondes,
11 whiche in tyme passed was to the vnprofytable both to the, and also to me,
12 whome I haue sente home agayne. Thou therfore receyue hym, that is to say, myne owne bowels
13 whome I woulde fayne haue receyued with me, that in thy stede he myght haue ministred vnto me in the bondes of the Gospell.
14 Neuer thelesse, wythout thy mynde, woulde I do nothynge, that the good whiche spryngeth of the shoulde not be as it were of necessytie, but wyllynglye.
15 Happelye he therfore departed for a season that thou shouldest receyue hym for euer,
16 not nowe as a seruaunte, but aboue a seruaunte I meane a brother beloued, specyally to me: but howe muche more vnto the, bothe in the fleshe and also in the Lorde?
