1 Peter 2:18-25 - Submission Of Slaves To Masters
18 Ye who are servants, be subject to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and mild, but also to the morose: 19 for this is an evidence of grace, if any one for conscience towards God endure griefs, suffering unjustly. 20 For what glory is it, if when ye sin and are punished for it, ye bear it patiently? but if when ye do well and suffer for it, ye bear it patiently, this will gain favor with God.
21 For unto this are ye called; because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye might follow his steps. 22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: 23 who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered, He threatened not; but committed Himself to Him that judgeth righteously. 24 Who Himself bare our sins in his own body on the cross, that we being dead to sins, might live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye are healed. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now turned unto the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
