1 Peter 2:16-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁶ You are free people. But you are servants of God. So do not think, ‘Because I am free, I can do any bad thing that I want to do.’ ¹⁷ Respect all people. Love the believers as you would love your family. Obey God as your master. Respect the king.

¹⁸ You who are slaves must obey your masters. Always respect them. Do that to every kind of master. Obey those who are good and kind. But also obey masters who are not fair to you.
