1. Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
2. Honour thy father and mother (which is the first commandment with a promise),
3. that it may be well with thee, and thou may live long on the earth.
4. And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath, but bring them up in the discipline and admonition of the Lord.
5. Slaves, be obedient to those that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in simplicity of your heart as unto the Christ,
6. not to be seen as only pleasing men, but as the slaves of the Christ, doing the will of God from within,
7. with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,
8. knowing that whatever good thing anyone does, the same shall they receive of the Lord, whether they are slaves or free.
9. And, ye masters, do the same unto them, forbearing threats, knowing that their Master and yours is also in the heavens and that he is no respecter of persons.
10. Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.
11. Put on the whole armour of God that ye may be able to stand firm against the wiles of the devil.
