Ephesians 6:4-8
English Standard Version
4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, (A)but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Bondservants and Masters
5 (B)Bondservants,[a] obey your earthly masters[b] with fear and trembling, (C)with a sincere heart, (D)as you would Christ, 6 not by the way of eye-service, as (E)people-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, 7 rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, 8 (F)knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, (G)whether he is a bondservant or is free.

Ephesians 6:4-8
New International Version
4 Fathers,[a] do not exasperate your children;(A) instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.(B)
5 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect(C) and fear, and with sincerity of heart,(D) just as you would obey Christ.(E) 6 Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ,(F) doing the will of God from your heart. 7 Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,(G) 8 because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do,(H) whether they are slave or free.
