Philemon 1:5-7
5because I 1hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the 2saints; 6and I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective 3through the 4knowledge of every good thing which is in you 5for the sake of Christ. 7For I have had great 6joy and comfort in your love, because the 7hearts of the 8saints have been 9refreshed through you, brother.
