Final Instruction to Masters

Colossians 4:1

Showing verse 1 with surrounding context.

Masters, treat your slaves justly and fairly. Remember that you too have a Master in heaven.

Keep persisting in prayer, staying alert in it and being thankful.

Include prayer for us, too, that God may open a door for us to proclaim the message about the secret of the Messiah — for that is why I am in prison.

And pray that I may speak, as I should, in a way that makes the message clear.
