Submission Of Slaves To Masters
21 [After all], this is what you were called to do, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you would follow in His steps. 22 [For] He neither sinned nor used deceitful words. 23 When He was spoken to with harsh insults, He did not reply in the same way. When He was made to suffer, He did not threaten [His tormentors], but instead entrusted Himself to God, [whom He knew] would make a righteous judgment [in the matter].
