Colossians 4:1-6 ▼

1 Masters, show to your slaves what is right and fair, knowing that you too have a Master in heaven.

2 Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving;

3 praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak the mystery of Christ, for which I have also been bound,

4 that I may make it manifest in the way I ought to speak.

5 Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, redeeming the time.

6 Let your words always be with grace, seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should answer each person.
