1 Let as many seruaunts as are vnder the yoke, count their masters worthie of all honour, that the Name of God, and his doctrine be not euill spoken of.

2 And they which haue beleeuing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren, but rather doe seruice, because they are faithfull, and beloued, and partakers of the benefite. These things teach and exhort.

3 If any man teach otherwise, and consenteth not to the wholesome wordes of our Lorde Iesus Christ, and to the doctrine, which is according to godlinesse,

4 He is puft vp & knoweth nothing, but doteth about questions & strife of words, whereof commeth enuie, strife, railings, euill surmisings,

5 Frowarde disputations of men of corrupt mindes & destitute of ye trueth, which thinke that gaine is godlines: from such separate thy selfe.

6 But godlinesse is great gaine, if a man be content with that he hath.

7 For we brought nothing into the world, and it is certaine, that we can carie nothing out.
