ወደ ኤፌሶን ሰዎች 6:5-9 (አማ54)
ባሪያዎች ሆይ፥ ለክርስቶስ እንደምትታዘዙ በፍርሃትና በመንቀጥቀጥ በልባችሁ ቅንነት በሥጋ ጌቶቻችሁ ለሆኑ ታዘዙ፤ የእግዚአብሔርን ፈቃድ እንደሚያደርጉ እንደ ክርስቶስ ባሪያዎች እንጂ ለሰው ደስ እንደምታሰኙ ለታይታ የምትገዙ አትሁኑ። ለሰው ሳይሆን ለጌታ እንደምትገዙ በትጋትና በበጎ ፈቃድ ተገዙ፤ ባሪያ ቢሆን ወይም ጨዋ ሰው፥ እያንዳንዱ የሚያደርገውን መልካም ነገር ሁሉ ከጌታ በብድራት እንዲቀበለው ታውቃላችሁና። እናንተም ጌቶች ሆይ፥ ዛቻውን ትታችሁ እንዲሁ አድርጉላቸው፥ በእነርሱና በእናንተ ላይ የሚገዛው ጌታ በሰማይ እንዳለ ለሰው ፊትም እንዳያደላ ታውቃላችሁና።
Ephesians 6:5-9 (ESV)
Bondservants, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a bondservant or is free. Masters, do the same to them, and stop your threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him
