Colossians 3:18-22

181Wives, 2be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 193Husbands, love your wives and do not become bitter against them. 204Children, obey your parents in everything, for this is pleasing 5to the Lord. 216Fathers, do not 7antagonize your children, so that they will not become discouraged.

2289Slaves, obey those who are your 10human masters in everything, 11not with 12eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord.
