1 Let G1526 as many G3745 servants G1401 as G3745 are G1526 under G5259 the yoke G2218 count G2233 their own G2398 masters G1203 worthy G514 of all G3956 honour, G5092 that G3363 the name G3686 of God G2316 and G2532 his doctrine G1319 be G987 not G3363 blasphemed. G987
2 And G1161 they that have G2192 believing G4103 masters, G1203 let them G2706 not G3361 despise G2706 them, because G3754 they are G1526 brethren; G80 but G235 rather G3123 do them service, G1398 because G3754 they are G1526 faithful G4103 and G2532 beloved, G27 partakers G482 of the benefit.
