Colossians 3:12-25
12Put on therefore, as [the] elect of 1God, holy and beloved, bowels of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering; 13forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any should have a complaint against any; even as the Christ has forgiven you, so also [do] ye. 14And to all these [add] love, which is the bond of perfectness. 15And let the peace of Christ preside in your hearts, to which also ye have been called in one body, and be thankful. 16Let the word of the Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another, in psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to 2God. 17And everything, whatever ye may do in word or in deed, [do] all things in [the] name of [the] Lord Jesus, giving thanks to 3God the Father by him. 18Wives, be subject to [your] husbands, as is fitting in [the] Lord. 19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. 20Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing in [the] Lord. 21Fathers, do not vex your children, to the end that they be not disheartened. 22Bondmen, obey in all things your masters according to flesh; not with eye-services, as men-pleasers, but in simplicity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23Whatsoever ye do, labour at it heartily, as [doing it] to the Lord, and not to men; 24knowing that of [the] Lord ye shall receive the recompense of the inheritance; ye serve the Lord Christ. 25For he that does a wrong shall receive the wrong he has done, and there is no respect of persons.
