Colossians 3:17-25 English Revised Version (ERV)

17. And whatsoever ye do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

18. Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

19. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.

20. Children, obey your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing in the Lord.

21. Fathers, provoke not your children, that they be not discouraged.

22. Servants, obey in all things them that are your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord:

23. whatsoever ye do, work heartily, as unto the Lord, and not unto men;

24. knowing that from the Lord ye shall receive the recompense of the inheritance: ye serve the Lord Christ.

25. For he that doeth wrong shall receive again for the wrong that he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
