1 Timothy 6:1-3

EasyEnglish Bible

About slaves who are believers

6 All slaves should know that it is right to respect their masters. Then other people will not insult God's name or the message that we teach. ² Slaves who have masters who are also believers must continue to respect them. As believers, the slave and his master are like brothers together. But that slave must not refuse to obey his master because of that. Instead, he should work even better for his master. He should do that because he loves his master as a believer.

Teach these things and tell people to obey them.
