6not with eye-service as men-pleasers, but as servants of the Christ, doing the will of God out of soul,
7with good-will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men,
8having known that whatever good thing each one may do, this he shall receive from the Lord, whether servant or freeman.
9And the masters! the same things do ye unto them, letting threatening alone, having known that also your Master is in the heavens, and acceptance of persons is not with him.
10As to the rest, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might;
11put on the whole armour of God, for your being able to stand against the wiles of the devil,
12because we have not the wrestling with blood and flesh, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places;
