1. Children, you belong to the Lord, and you do the right thing when you obey your parents. The first commandment with a promise says,
2. “Obey your father and your mother,
3. and you will have a long and happy life.”
4. Parents, don't be hard on your children. Raise them properly. Teach them and instruct them about the Lord.
5. Slaves, you must obey your earthly masters. Show them great respect and be as loyal to them as you are to Christ.
