Ephesians 5:33-6:9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³³ Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.

6 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is just.

² Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise:

³ That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest be long lived upon earth.

⁴ And you, fathers, provoke not your children to anger; but bring them up in the discipline and correction of the Lord.

⁵ Servants, be obedient to them that are your lords according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to Christ:

⁶ Not serving to the eye, as it were pleasing men, but, as the servants of Christ doing the will of God from the heart,

⁷ With a good will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men.

⁸ Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man shall do, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be bond, or free.

⁹ And you, masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatenings, knowing that the Lord both of them and you is in heaven; and there is no respect of persons with him.
