I thank my God / making mention all ways of the in my prayers / when I hear of thy love and faith / which thou hast toward the Lord Jesus / and toward all saints: so that the fellowship that thou hast in the faith / is fruitful through knowledge of all good things ⟨p. cccxiiii⟩/ which are in you by Jesus Christ. And we have great joy / and consolation over thy love: For by the (brother) the saints hearts are comforted.
I thāke my God / makinge menciō all wayes of the in my prayers / when I heare of thy love and fayth / which thou hast towarde the Lorde Iesu / and towarde all saynctes: so that the fellisshippe that thou hast in the fayth / is frutefull thorow knowledge of all good thinges ⟨p. cccxiiii⟩/ which are in you by Iesus Christ. And we have great ioye / and consolacion over thy love: For by the (brother) the saynctes hertes are comforted.
Wherefore though I be bold in Christ to §Benjoin the / that which becometh thee: yet for loves sake I rather beseech the / though I be as I am / even Paul aged / & now in bonds for Jesus Christs sake. I beseech thee for my son Onesimus / whom I begat in my bonds / which in time passed was to the unprofitable: but now profitable both to the & also to me / whom I have sent home again. Thou therefore receive him / that is to say mine own bowels / whom I would fain have retained with me / that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel. Nevertheless / without thy mind / would I do nothing / that that good which springeth of the / should not be as it were of necessity / but willingly.
Wherfore though I be bolde in Christ to §Benioyne the / that which becōmeth the: yet for loves sake I rather beseche the / though I be as I am / evē Paul aged / & now in bondes for Iesu Christes sake. I beseche the for my sonne Onesimus / whom I begat in my bondes / which in tyme passed was to the vnproffetable: but now proffetable bothe to the & also to me / whom I have sent home agayne. Thou therfore receave him / that is to saye myne awne bowels / whom I wolde fayne have retayned with me / that in thy stede he myght have ministred vnto me in ye bondes of the gospell. Neverthelesse / without thy mynde / wolde I doo nothinge / that yt good which springeth of the / shuld not be as it were of necessitie / but willingly.
