Colossians 4:1-11
-
1 Masters, give unto your servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.
-
2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;
-
3 Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:
-
4 That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.
-
5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
-
6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.
-
7 All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:
-
8 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;
-
9 With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known unto you all things which are done here.
-
10 Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)
-
11 And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only are my fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.
