Philemon1:20
20 Yea, brother , let me have joy of thee in the Lord : refresh my bowels in the Lord .
The particle [non-Latin text not transcribed] is used in swearing, affirming, perswading, intreating, the latter seemeth here most proper, as much as of all love, brother.
It will rejoice my heart, to see thee charitable and obedient to my Monitions, let me have a spiritual joy from thy satisfaction of me in what I desire.
Either Onesimus whom ver. 12. he had called his bowells. Or my inward man.
