Colossians 3:22-4:6

New King James Version

^22 (A)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 (B)And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, ^24 (C)knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; ^(D)for^[a] you serve the Lord Christ. ²⁵ But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and ^(E)there is no partiality.

Christian Graces; Final Greetings

4 Masters,^(F) give your bondservants what is just and fair, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

Christian Graces

^2 (G)Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it ^(H)with thanksgiving; ^3 (I)meanwhile praying also for us, that God would ^(J)open to us a door for the word, to speak ^(K)the ^[b]mystery of Christ, ^(L)for which I am also in chains, ⁴ that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.

^5 (M)Walk in ^(N)wisdom toward those who are outside, ^(O)redeeming the time. ⁶ Let your speech always be ^(P)with grace, ^(Q)seasoned with salt, ^(R)that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
