1. Children, it is your Christian duty to obey your parents, for this is the right thing to do.
2. “Respect your father and mother” is the first commandment that has a promise added:
3. “so that all may go well with you, and you may live a long time in the land.”
4. Parents, do not treat your children in such a way as to make them angry. Instead, bring them up with Christian discipline and instruction.
5. Slaves, obey your human masters with fear and trembling; and do it with a sincere heart, as though you were serving Christ.
6. Do this not only when they are watching you, because you want to gain their approval; but with all your heart do what God wants, as slaves of Christ.
7. Do your work as slaves cheerfully, as though you served the Lord, and not merely human beings.
