Colossians 4:1-9

Colossians 4:1-9 CSB

Masters,  deal with your slaves justly and fairly, since you know that you too have a Master in heaven. Devote yourselves  to prayer; stay alert in it with thanksgiving. At the same time, pray also for us that God may open a door  to us for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ,  for which I am in chains,  so that I may make it known as I should. Act wisely toward outsiders, making the most of the time.  Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt,  so that you may know how you should answer each person.  Tychicus,  our dearly loved brother, faithful  minister, and fellow servant in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me. I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know how we are  and so that he may encourage  your hearts.  He is coming with Onesimus,  a faithful and dearly loved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you about everything here.
