New Living Translation
Philemon 1:8-9
8That is why I am boldly asking a favor of you. I could demand it in the name of Christ because it is the right thing for you to do.
9But because of our love, I prefer simply to ask you. Consider this as a request from me—Paul, an old man and now also a prisoner for the sake of Christ Jesus.
