Colossians 3:18-22

18Wives, place yourselves under your husbands’ authority. This is appropriate behavior for the Lord’s people.

19Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be harsh with them.

20Children, always obey your parents. This is pleasing to the Lord.

21Fathers, don’t make your children resentful, or they will become discouraged.

22Slaves, always obey your earthly masters. Don’t obey them only while you’re being watched, as if you merely wanted to please people. Be sincere in your motives out of respect for your real master.
