| | 6:1 | Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. |
| | 6:2 | Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; |
| | 6:3 | That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. |
| | 6:4 | And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. |
| | 6:5 | Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; |
| | 6:6 | Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; |
| | 6:7 | With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: |
| | 6:8 | Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. |
| | 6:9 | And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him. |
| | 6:10 | Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. |
| | 6:11 | Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. |
| | 6:12 | For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. |
| | 6:13 | Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. |
| | 6:14 | Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; |
| | 6:15 | And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; |
| | 6:16 | Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. |
| | 6:17 | And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: |
| | 6:18 | Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; |
| | 6:19 | And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, |
| | 6:20 | For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. |
| | 6:21 | But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things: |
| | 6:22 | Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts. |
| | 6:23 | Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
| | 6:24 | Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. |
