1 Corinthians 7:20-22
New Matthew Bible
20 Let every person abide in the same state in which he was called. 21 Are you called when a servant? Care not for it. But if you may be free, avail yourself of it rather. 22 For he who is called in the Lord when a servant, is the Lord’s free man. Likewise, he who is called when free is Christ’s servant.

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)
