Colossians 3:19-24

English Standard Version

¹⁹ Husbands, love your wives, and ^(A)do not be harsh with them. ²⁰ Children, obey your parents ^(B)in everything, for this pleases the Lord. ²¹ Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged. ²² Bondservants, obey ^(C)in everything those who are your earthly masters,^[a] not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. ^23 (D)Whatever you do, work heartily, ^(E)as for the Lord and not for men, ²⁴ knowing that from the Lord ^(F)you will receive the inheritance as your reward. ^(G)You are serving the Lord Christ.
