Colossians 4:1-5
1Masters, grant your slaves justice and fairness, 1knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
22Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving; 3praying at the same time 3for us as well, that God will open up to us a 4door for 5the word, so that we may proclaim 6the mystery of Christ, for which I have also 7been imprisoned; 4that I may make it clear 8in the way that I ought to proclaim it.
5910Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward 11outsiders, 1213making the most of the opportunity.
