Ephesians 6:1-9

1ChildrenG5043, obeyG5219 your parentsG1118 in [the] LordG2962, for this isG1510 justG1342.

2Honour thy fatherG3962 and thy motherG3384, which isG1510 the firstG4413 commandmentG1785 with a promiseG1860,

3that it may beG1510 well with thee, and that thou mayest beG1510 long-lived on the earthG1093.

4And [ye] fathersG3962, do not provoke your childrenG5043 to anger, but bring them up in [the] disciplineG3809 and admonition of [the] LordG2962.

5Bondmen, obeyG5219 mastersG2962 accordingG2596 to fleshG4561, with fearG5401 and trembling, in simplicity of your heartG2588 as to the ChristG5547;

6not with eye-service as men-pleasers; but as bondmen of ChristG5547, doing the will of 1GodG2316 from [the] soulG5590,

7servingG1398 with good will as to the LordG2962, and not to menG444;

8knowing that whatever goodG18 each shall do, this he shall receiveG2865 of [the] LordG2962, whether bond or freeG1658.

9And, mastersG2962, do the sameG846 things towards them, giving up threatening, knowing that both their and your MasterG2962 isG1510 in heavenG3772, and there isG1510 no acceptance of persons with him.
