And those having believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brothers, but rather let them serve as slaves, because those receiving the good service are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.

preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all patience and teaching.

Speak these things, exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you.

Faithful is this word, and concerning these things I want you to strongly affirm, so that those who have believed in God may take thought to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.
