20 (A)Each man must remain in that [a]condition in which he was called.
21 Were you called while a slave? [b]Do not worry about it. But if you are able also to become free, rather [c]do that. 22 For he who was called in the Lord while a slave, is (B)the Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who was called while free, is (C)Christ’s slave.

1 Corinthians 7:20-22
New International Version
20 Each person should remain in the situation they were in when God called them.(A)
21 Were you a slave when you were called? Don’t let it trouble you—although if you can gain your freedom, do so. 22 For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person;(B) similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave.(C)
