Colossians 4:1-9 ▼

1 Masters, award unto the servants that which is right and equal; knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

2 Be constant in prayer, watching in the same with thanksgiving;

3 at the same time also praying for us, in order that God may open to us the door of the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which I indeed am bound;

4 in order that I may manifest the same, as it behooves me to speak.

5 Walk about in wisdom toward the aliens, buying in the opportunity.

6 Let your word be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how it behooves you to answer each one.

7 Tychicus, my beloved brother, and faithful minister and fellow-laborer in the Lord, will make known to you all things which appertain to me:

8 whom I sent unto you for this same thing, in order that you may know the things concerning us, and he may comfort your hearts;

9 along with our faithful and beloved brother, Onesimus, who is from you; they will truly make known all things to you.
