18Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.19Husbands, love your wives and do not be embittered toward them.20Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.21Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.22Slaves, obey in all things your lords according to the flesh, not with eye-service as people-pleasers, but with simplicity of heart, reverencing the Lord.23Whatever you do, work from the soul as to the Lord and not to humans,24knowing that from the Lord you will receive the recompense of the inheritance as a reward; you serve the Lord Christ.25For the one who wrongs will receive back what he wronged, and there is no partiality.
