2:26 他很想念你们众人，并且极其难过，因为你们听见他病了。
For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.
2:27 他实在是病了，几乎要死。然而神怜悯他，不但怜悯他，也怜悯我，免得我忧上加忧。
For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
2:28 所以我越发急速打发他去，叫你们再见他，就可以喜乐，我也可以少些忧愁。
I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
2:29 故此你们要在主里欢欢乐乐的接待他。而且要尊重这样的人。
Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
2:30 因他为作基督的工夫，几乎至死，不顾性命，要补足你们供给我不及之处。
Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
新约 -- 腓立比书(Philippians) -- 第 3 章 ( 本篇共有 4 章 )
3:1 弟兄们，我还有话说，你们要靠主喜乐。我把这话再写给你们，于我并不为难，于你们却是妥当。
Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.
3:2 应当防备犬类，防备作恶的，防备妄自行割的。
Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
3:3 因为真受割礼的，乃是我们这以神的灵敬拜，在基督耶稣里夸口，不靠着肉体的。
For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
3:4 其实我也可以靠肉体。若是别人想他可以靠肉体，我更可以靠着了。
Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:
3:5 我第八天受割礼，我是以色列族，便雅悯支派的人，是希伯来人所生的希伯来人。就律法说，我是法利赛人。
Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
3:6 就热心说，我是逼迫教会的。就律法上的义说，我是无可指摘的。
Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
3:7 只是我先前以为与我有益的，我现在因基督都当作有损的。
But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
3:8 不但如此，我也将万事都当有损的，因我以认识我主基督耶稣为至宝。
Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
3:9 我为他已经丢弃万事，看作粪土，为要得着基督。并且得以在他里面，不是有自己因律法而得的义，乃是有信基督的义，就是因信神而来的义。
And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
3:10 使我认识基督，晓得他复活的大能，并且晓得和他一同受苦，效法他的死。
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
3:11 或者我也得以从死里复活。
If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.
3:12 这不是说，我已经得着了，已经完全了。我乃是竭力追求，或者可以得着基督耶稣所以得着我的。（所以得着我的或作所要我得的）
Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
3:13 弟兄们，我不是以为自己已经得着了。我只有一件事，就是忘记背后努力面前的，
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
3:14 向着标竿直跑，要得神在基督耶稣里从上面召我来得的奖赏。
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
3:15 所以我们中间凡是完全人，总要存这样的心。若在什么事上，存别样的心，神也必以此指示你们。
Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
3:16 然而我们到了什么地步，就当照着什么地步行。
Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
3:17 弟兄们，你们要一同效法我，也当留意看那些照我们榜样行的人。
Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.
3:18 因为有许多人行事，是基督十字架的仇敌。我屡次告诉你们，现在又流泪的告诉你们。
(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
3:19 他们的结局就是沉沦，他们的神就是自己的肚腹，他们以自己的羞辱为荣耀，专以地上的事为念。
Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
3:20 我们却是天上的国民。并且等候救主，就是主耶稣基督，从天上降临。
For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
3:21 他要按着那能叫万有归服自己的大能，将我们这卑贱的身体改变形状，和他自己荣耀的身体相似。
Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
新约 -- 腓立比书(Philippians) -- 第 4 章 ( 本篇共有 4 章 )
4:1 我所亲爱所想念的弟兄们，你们就是我的喜乐，我的冠冕。我亲爱的弟兄，你们应当靠主站立得稳。
Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
4:2 我劝友阿爹和循都基，要在主里同心。
I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.
4:3 我也求你这真实同负一轭的，帮助这两个女人，因为他们在福音上曾与我一同劳苦。还有革利免，并其馀和我一同作工的。他们的名字都在生命册上。
And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.
4:4 你们要靠主常常喜乐。我再说，你们要喜乐。
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.
4:5 当叫众人知道你们谦让的心。主已经近了。
Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
4:6 应当一无挂虑，只要凡事藉着祷告，祈求，和感谢，将你们所要的告诉神。
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
4:7 神所赐出人意外的平安，必在基督耶稣里，保守你们的心怀意念。
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
4:8 弟兄们，我还有未尽的话。凡是真实的，可敬的，公义的，清洁的，可爱的，有美名的。若有什么德行，若有什么称赞，这些事你们都要思念。
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
4:9 你们在我身上所学习的，所领受的，所听见的，所看见的，这些事你们都要去行。赐平安的神，就必与你们同在。
Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
4:10 我靠主大大的喜乐，因为你们思念我的心，如今又发生。你们向来就思念我，只是没有机会。
But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
4:11 我并不是因缺乏说这话，我无论在什么景况，都可以知足，这是我已经学会了。
Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
4:12 我知道怎样处卑贱，也知道怎样处丰富，或饱足，或饥饿，或有馀，或缺乏，随事随在，我都得了秘诀。
I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
4:13 我靠着那加给我力量的，凡事都能作。
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
4:14 然而你们和我同受患难，原是美事。
Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
4:15 腓立比人哪，你们也知道我初传福音，离了马其顿的时候，论到授受的事，除了你们以外，并没有别的教会供给我。
Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
4:16 就是我在帖撒罗尼迦，你们也一次两次的，打发人供给我的需用。
For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
4:17 我并不求什么馈送，所求的就是你们的果子渐渐增多，归在你们的账上。
Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
4:18 但我样样都有，并且有馀。我已经充足，因我从以巴弗提受了你们的馈送，当作极美的香气，为神所收纳所喜悦的祭物。
But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
4:19 我的神必照他荣耀的丰富，在基督耶稣里，使你们一切所需用的都充足。
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
4:20 愿荣耀归给我们的父神，直到永永远远。阿们。
Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
4:21 请问在基督耶稣里的各位圣徒安。在我这里的众弟兄都问你们安。
Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.
4:22 众圣徒都问你们安。在凯撒家里的人特特的问你们安。
All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar's household.
4:23 愿主耶稣基督的恩常在你们心里。
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
新约 -- 歌罗西书(Colossians) -- 第 1 章 ( 本篇共有 4 章 )
1:1 奉神旨意，作基督耶稣使徒的保罗，和兄弟提摩太，
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother,
1:2 写信给歌罗西的圣徒，在基督里有忠心的弟兄。愿恩惠平安，从神我们的父，归与你们。
To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:3 我们感谢神我们主耶稣基督的父，常常为你们祷告。
We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
1:4 因听见你们在基督耶稣里的信心，并向众圣徒的爱心。
Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,
1:5 是为那给你们存在天上的盼望。这盼望就是你们从前在福音真理的道上所听见的。
For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;
1:6 这福音传到你们那里，也传到普天之下，并且结果增长，如同在你们中间，自从你们听见福音，真知道神恩惠的日子一样。
Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you, since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
1:7 正如你们从我们所亲爱，一同作仆人的以巴弗所学的。他为我们（有古卷你们）作了基督忠心的执事。
As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
1:8 也把你们因圣灵所存的爱心告诉了我们。
Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
1:9 因此，我们自从听见的日子，也就为你们不住的祷告祈求，愿你们在一切属灵的智慧悟性上，满心知道神的旨意。
For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
1:10 好叫你们行事为人对得起主，凡事蒙他喜悦，在一切善事上结果子，渐渐的多知道神。
That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
1:11 照他荣耀的权能，得以在各样的力上加力，好叫你们凡事欢欢喜喜的忍耐宽容。
Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
1:12 又感谢父，叫我们能与众圣徒在光明中同得基业。
Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
1:13 他救了我们脱离黑暗的权势，把我们迁到他爱子的国里。
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
1:14 我们在爱子里得蒙救赎，罪过得以赦免。
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
1:15 爱子是那不能看见之神的像，是首生的，在一切被造的以先。
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
1:16 因为万有都是靠他造的，无论是天上的，地上的，能看见的，不能看见的，或是有位的，主治的，执政的，掌权的，一概都是藉着他造的，又是为他造的。
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
1:17 他在万有之先，万有也靠他而立。
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
1:18 他也是教会全体之首。他是元始，是从死里首先复生的，使他可已在凡事上居首位。
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
1:19 因为父喜欢叫一切的丰盛，在他里面居住。
For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
1:20 既然藉着他在十字架上所流的血，成就了和平，便藉着他叫万有，无论是地上的，天上的，都与自己和好了。
And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
1:21 你们从前与神隔绝，因着恶行，心里与他为敌。
And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
1:22 但如今他藉着基督的肉身受死，叫你们与自己和好，都成了圣洁，没有瑕疵，无可责备，把你们引到自己面前。
In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
1:23 只要你们在所信的道上恒心，根基稳固，坚定不移，不至被引动失去原文作离开福音的盼望。这福音就是你们所听过的，也是传与普天下万人听的。万人原文作凡受造的我保罗也作了这福音的执事。
If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
1:24 现在我为你们受苦，倒觉欢乐，并且为基督的身体，就是为教会，要在我肉身上补满基督患难的缺欠。
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:
1:25 我照神为你们所赐我的职分，作了教会的执事，要把神的道理传得全备。
Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
1:26 这道理就是历世历代所隐藏的奥秘，但如今向他的圣徒显明了。
Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
1:27 神愿意叫他们知道，这奥秘在外邦人中有何等丰盛的荣耀。就是基督在你们心里成了有荣耀的盼望。
To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
1:28 我们传扬他，是用诸般的智慧，劝戒各人，教导各人。要把各人在基督里完完全全的引到神面前。
Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
1:29 我也为此劳苦，照着他在我里面运用的大能，尽心竭力。
Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.
新约 -- 歌罗西书(Colossians) -- 第 2 章 ( 本篇共有 4 章 )
2:1 我愿意你们晓得我为你们和老底嘉人，并一切没有与我亲自见面的人，是何等的尽心竭力。
For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;
2:2 要叫他们的心得安慰，因爱心互相联络，以致丰丰足足在悟性中有充足的信心，使他们真知道神的奥秘，就是基督。
That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
2:3 所积蓄的一切智慧知识，都在他里面藏着。
In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
2:4 我说这话，免得有人用花言巧语迷惑你们。
And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
2:5 我身子虽与你们相离，心却与你们同在，见你们循规蹈矩，信基督的心也坚固，我就欢喜了。
For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
2:6 你们既然接受了主基督耶稣，就当遵他而行。
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
2:7 在他里面生根建造，信心坚固，正如你们所领的教训，感谢的心也更增长了。
Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
2:8 你们要谨慎，恐怕有人用他的理学，和虚空的妄言，不照着基督，乃照人间的遗传，和世上的小学，就把你们掳去。
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
2:9 因为神本性一切的丰盛，都有形有体的居住在基督里面。
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
2:10 你们在他里面也得了丰盛。他是各样执政掌权者的元首。
And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
2:11 你们在他里面，也受了不是人手所行的割礼，乃是基督使你们脱去肉体情欲的割礼。
In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
2:12 你们既受洗与他一同埋葬，也就在此与他一同复活。都因信那叫他从死里复活神的功用
Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
2:13 你们从前在过犯，和未受割礼的肉体中死了，神赦免了你们（或作我们）一切过犯，便叫你们与基督一同活过来。
And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
2:14 又涂抹了在律例上所写，攻击我们有碍于我们的字据，把他撤去，钉在十字架上。
Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
2:15 既将一切执政的掌权的掳来，明显给众人看，就仗着十字架夸胜。
And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
2:16 所以不拘在饮食上，或节期，月朔，安息日，都不可让人论断你们。
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
2:17 这些原是后事的影儿。那形体却是基督。
Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
2:18 不可让人因着故意谦虚，和敬拜天使，就夺去你们的奖赏。这等人拘泥在所见过的，（有古卷作这等人窥察所没有见过的）随着自己的欲心，无故的自高自大，
Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
2:19 不持定元首，全身既然靠着他筋节得以相助联络，就因神大得长进。
And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
2:20 你们若是与基督同死，脱离了世上的小学，为什么仍像在世俗中活着，
Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
2:21 服从那不可拿，不可尝，不可摸，等类的规条呢。
(Touch not; taste not; handle not;
2:22 这都是照人所吩咐所教导的。说到这一切正用的时候就都败坏了。
Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
2:23 这些规条，使人徒有智慧之名，用私意崇拜，自表谦卑，苦待己身，其实在克制肉体的情欲上，是毫无功效。
Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
新约 -- 歌罗西书(Colossians) -- 第 3 章 ( 本篇共有 4 章 )
3:1 所以你们若真与基督一同复活，就当求在上面的事。那里有基督坐在神的右边。
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
3:2 你们要思念上面的事，不要思念地上的事。
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3:3 因为你们已经死了，你们的生命与基督一同藏在神里面。
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
3:4 基督是我们的生命，他显现的时候，你们也要与他一同显现在荣耀里。
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
3:5 所以要治死你们在地上的肢体。就如淫乱，污秽，邪情，恶欲，和贪婪，贪婪就与拜偶像一样。
Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
3:6 因这些事，神的忿怒必临到那悖逆之子。
For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
3:7 当你们在这些事中活着的时候，也曾这样行过。
In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
3:8 但现在你们要弃绝这一切的事，以及恼恨，忿怒，恶毒，（或作阴毒）毁谤，并口中污秽的言语。
But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
3:9 不要彼此说谎，因你们已经脱去旧人和旧人的行为，
Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
3:10 穿上了新人。这新人在知识上渐渐更新，正如造他主的形像。
And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
3:11 在此并不分希腊人，犹太人，受割礼的，未受割礼的，化外人，西古提人，为奴的，自主的，惟有基督是包括一切，又住在各人之内。
Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
3:12 所以你们既是神的选民，圣洁蒙爱的人，就要存（原文作穿下同）怜悯，恩慈，谦虚，温柔，忍耐的心。
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
3:13 倘若这人与那人有嫌隙，总要彼此包容，彼此饶恕。主怎样饶恕了你们，你们也要怎样饶恕人。
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
3:14 在这一切之外，要存着爱心。爱心就是联络全德的。
And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
3:15 又要叫基督的平安在你们心里作主。你们也为此蒙召，归为一体。且要存感谢的心。
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
3:16 当用各样的智慧，把基督的道里，丰丰富富的存在心里，（或作当把基督的道里丰丰富富的存在心里以各样的智慧）用诗章，颂词，灵歌，彼此教导，互相劝戒，心被恩感歌颂神。
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
3:17 无论作什么，或说话，或行事，都要奉主耶稣的名，藉着他感谢父神。
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
3:18 你们作妻子的，当顺服自己的丈夫，这在主里面是相宜的。
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
3:19 你们作丈夫的，要爱你们的妻子，不可苦待他们。
Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
3:20 你们作儿女的，要凡事听从父母，因为这是主所喜悦的。
Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
3:21 你们作父亲的，不要惹儿女的气，恐怕他们失去志气。
Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
3:22 你们作仆人的，要凡事听从你们肉身的主人，不要只在眼前事奉，像是讨人喜欢的，总要存心诚实敬畏主。
Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
3:23 无论作什么，都要从心里作，像是给主作的，不是给人作的。
And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
3:24 因你们知道从主那里，必得着基业为赏赐。你们所事奉的乃是主基督。
Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
3:25 那行不义的，必受不义的报应。主不偏待人。
But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
