1. Ὁ Παῦλος, ὁ φυλακισμένος τοῦ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ, καὶ ὁ Τιμόθεος ὁ ἀδελφός, πρὸς τὸν Φιλήμονα τὸν ἀγαπητὸν καὶ συνεργάτην μας,
2. καὶ πρὸς τὴν Ἀπφίαν, τὴν ἀγαπητήν, καὶ πρὸς τὸν Ἄρχιππον, τὸν συστρατιώτην μας, καὶ πρὸς τὴν ἐκκλησίαν τοῦ σπιτιοῦ σου·
3. χάρις νὰ εἶναι σ᾽ ἐσᾶς καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ τὸν Θεὸν τὸν Πατέρα μας καὶ τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν.
4. Εὐχαριστῶ τὸν Θεόν μου πάντοτε, ὅταν σὲ ἀναφέρω εἰς τὰς προσευχάς μου,
