1Masters, give to your servants that which is just and fair, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
Exhortations
2#Lk 18:1; Eph 6:18Continue in prayer, and be watchful with thanksgiving, 3#Eph 6:19–20; Ac 14:27while praying also for us, that God would open to us a door of utterance to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in chains, 4#Eph 6:20that I may reveal it clearly, as I ought to speak. 5#Mk 4:11; Eph 5:15–17Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, wisely using the opportunity. 6#Mk 9:50; 1Pe 3:15Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you should answer everyone.
