Colossians 3:22-25
2212Slaves, obey those who are your 3human masters in everything, 4not with 5eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord.
23Whatever you do, do your work 6heartily, 7as for the Lord and not for people,
248knowing that it is from the Lord that you will receive the reward 9of 10the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you 11serve.
25For 12the one who does wrong will receive the consequences of the wrong which he has done, and 1314that without partiality.
