Colossians 3:17-4:1 (Epistle)
- 17
- And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
- 18
- Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
- 19
- Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them.
- 20
- Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well pleasing to the Lord.
- 21
- Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.
- 22
- Bondservants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in sincerity of heart, fearing God.
- 23
- And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men,
- 24
- knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
- 25
- But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality.
- 1
- Masters, give your bondservants what is just and fair, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
