Colossians 3:22-4:1
Legacy Standard Bible
22 (A)Slaves, in all things obey those who are your masters [a]according to the flesh, (B)not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but with [b]integrity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, do your work [c]heartily, (C)as for the Lord [d]rather than for men, 24 (D)knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward [e]of (E)the inheritance. [f](F)Serve the Lord Christ. 25 For (G)he who does wrong will receive the consequences of the wrong which he has done, and [g](H)that without partiality.
Final Instructions and Greetings
4 Masters, show to your slaves what is right and fair, (I)knowing that you too have a Master in heaven.
