Philemon 1:14

but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will.

But I didn’t want to do anything without your consent, so that your good deed might not be out of obligation, but of your own free will.

but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own accord.

But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.

but I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that your goodness would not be, in effect, by compulsion, but of your own free will.

But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that any favor you do would not seem forced but would be voluntary.

But I didn’t want to do anything without your consent. I wanted you to help because you were willing, not because you were forced.

But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will.
