Ephesians 6:5-9
21st Century King James Version
5 Servants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ,
6 not with eyeservice as menpleasers, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,
7 with good will doing service, as to the Lord and not to men,
8 knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
9 And ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening, knowing that your Master also is in Heaven; neither is there respect of persons with Him.

American Standard Version
5 [a]Servants, be obedient unto them that according to the flesh are your [b]masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; 6 not in the way of eyeservice, as men-pleasers; but as [c]servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the [d]heart; 7 with good will doing service, as unto the Lord, and not unto men: 8 knowing that whatsoever good thing each one doeth, the same shall he receive again from the Lord, whether he be bond or free. 9 And, ye [e]masters, do the same things unto them, and forbear threatening: knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no respect of persons with him.
