Submission to Masters
18 aServants, be submissive to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh.
19 For this is acommendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully.
20 For awhat credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.
21 For ato this you were called, because Christ also suffered for1 us, bleaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:
22 “Who acommitted no sin,
Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;
Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;
