22 Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not in eye-service, as pleasing men,
but in simplicity of heart, fearing the Lord.
23 Whatever you do, work from the soul as to the Lord, and not to men,
24 knowing that from the Lord you shall receive the reward of the inheritance. Serve the Lord Christ;
25 for he that does wrong shall receive for the wrong that he has done, and there is no respect of per
sons.
Colossians 4
1 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in
heaven,
2 Persevere in prayer, watching in it in thanksgiving,
3 praying at the same time also for us, that God would open for us a door of the word to speak the
mystery of Christ, for which I also have been It bound,
4 that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak.
5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are without, redeeming the time.
6 Let your speech be always in grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know of how you ought to
answer every one.
7 All things that concern me will Tychicus, the beloved brother and to faithful minister and fellow-
servant in the Lord, make known to you,
8 whom I sent to you for this very purpose, that he may know your state, and comfort your hearts,
9 and Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is of you; they will make known all things here.
10 Aristarchus, my fellow-prisoner, salutes you, and so does Mark, the nephew of Barnabas, concerning
whom you received commandments, if he come to you, receive him,
11 and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision: these only are my fellow-workers for the
kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.
12 Epaphras, who is of you, salutes you, a servant of Christ Jesus, always striving for you in prayers,
that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.
13 For I testify for him that he has great travail for you and for those in Laodicea and those in
Hierapolis.
14 Luke, the beloved physician, salutes you, and Demas.
15 Salute the brethren in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church that is in his house.
16 And when the epistle has been read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the
Laodiceans, and see that you also read that from Laodicea.
17 And say to Archippus: Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil
it.
18 The salutation of Paul with my own hand. Remember my bonds. Grace be with you.

Jude
1 Jude, a servant of Christ Jesus, but brother of James, to the called that are beloved in God the Father,
and kept for Jesus Christ.
2 Mercy to you and peace and love be multiplied.
3 Beloved, giving all diligence to write to you concerning this common salvation, I found it necessary to
write to you, exhorting you to contend for the faith once delivered to the saints.
4 For some men have come in by stealth, who have long ago been written of beforehand for this
condemnation; ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying our only
Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
5 But I wish to put you in remembrance, though you already know all things, that the Lord, after having
saved the people from the land of Egypt, the second time destroyed those that believed not:
6 angels also that kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he has kept in eternal chains
under darkness for the judgment of the great day:
7 how Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, giving themselves over to lewdness in like

punishment of eternal fire.
8 Yet still in like manner these dreamers also defile indeed the flesh, but despise dominion, and speak
evil of dignities.
9 But Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses,
dared not to bring a railing accusation, but said: The Lord rebuke thee.
10 But these speak evil of whatever things indeed they know not, but whatever things they understand
naturally as the irrational animals, in these they corrupt themselves.
11 Alas for them, for in the way of Cain they have walked, and in the error of Balaam they have rushed
headlong for hire, and in the contradiction of Corah have they perished.
12 These are they that are rocks in your love-feasts, feasting with you without fear, feeding themselves;
clouds without water, driven rapidly by winds; late autumnal trees without fruit, twice dead, torn up by
the roots;
13 raging waves of the sea foaming up their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of
darkness has been kept forever.
14 But of these also prophesied Enoch, the seventh from Adam, saying: Behold, the Lord came in his
holy myriads,
15 to execute judgment against all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly
