1 Peter 2:16-19
English Standard Version
16 (A)Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but (B)living as servants[a] of God. 17 (C)Honor everyone. (D)Love the brotherhood. (E)Fear God. Honor the emperor.
18 (F)Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unjust. 19 For this is a gracious thing, when, (G)mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly.
