Philemon 1:11

World English Bible (WEB)

who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.

In context

9 yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.

10 I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have become the father of in my chains,

11 who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me.

12 I am sending him back. Therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,

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