ગુજરાતીફિલેમોનને પત્ર ૧:૧૫
કેમ કે તે સદા તારી પાસે રહે, તે માટે જ કદાચ થોડીવાર સુધી તારાથી દૂર થયો હશે,
हिन्दीफिलेमोन १:१५
क्योंकि क्या जाने वह तुझ से कुछ दिन तक के लिये इसी कारण अलग हुआ कि सदैव तेरे निकट रहे।

In context

13whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News.

14But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.

15For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while that you would have him forever,

16no 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.

17If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me.
