2 ^a“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise:

3 “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”

4 And ^ayou, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but ^bbring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.

5 ^aBondservants, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, ^bwith fear and trembling, ^cin sincerity of heart, as to Christ;

6 ^anot with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

7 with goodwill doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men,

8 ^aknowing that whatever good anyone does, he will receive the same from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free.
