Bible verses about "slaves" | CLV

1 Timothy 6:1-2

1 Whoever are slaves under the yoke, let them deem their own owners worthy of all honor, lest the name of God and the teaching may be blasphemed." 2 Yet let those having believing owners not be despising them seeing that they are brethren, but rather let them slave for them, seeing that they are believing and beloved, being supported by the slave's benefaction. These things teach and entreat."

Colossians 3:22-25

22 Slaves, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh, not with eye-slavery, as manpleasers, but with singleness of heart, fearing the Lord." 23 All, whatsoever you may be doing, work from the soul, as to the Lord and not to men, " 24 Being aware that from the Lord you will be getting the compensation of the enjoyment of an allotment: for the Lord Christ are you slaving. 25 For he who is injuring shall be requited for that which he injures, and there is no partiality."

Colossians 4:1

1 Masters, tender that which is just and equitable to your slaves, being aware that you also have a Master in the heavens."
