Colossians 3:22-4:1
World English Bible
22 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God. 23 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ. 25 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
4 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
Colossians 3:22-4:1
American Standard Version
22 [a]Servants, obey in all things them that are your [b]masters according to the flesh; not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord: 23 whatsoever ye do, work [c]heartily, as unto the Lord, and not unto men; 24 knowing that from the Lord ye shall receive the recompense of the inheritance: ye serve the Lord Christ. 25 For he that doeth wrong shall [d]receive again for the wrong that he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. 4 1 [e]Masters, render unto your [f]servants that which is just and [g]equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
