Jesus answered them, Truly, truly do I say to you, Every one that committeth sin is a bondservant of sin.

And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever; the son abideth for ever.

But now having been delivered from the slavery of sin, and having become the bondservants of God, ye have holiness as the fruit, and everlasting life as the end.

For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus sake.

Now I say, that the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth in no respect from a bondservant, though he is lord of all;

So then thou art no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.

Bondservants, obey your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as serving Christ;

not with eyeservice as menpleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;

Bondservants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eyeservice, as menpleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

Masters, deal out to your bondservants justice and equity, knowing that ye also have a master in heaven.

Let all who are under the yoke as bondservants count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.

Exhort bondservants to be in subjection to their own masters, in all things to be wellpleasing to them,

no longer as a bondservant, but above a bondservant, a brother beloved, especially to me, but how much more to thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord!
