20 ¶ (A)[a]Children, obey your parents in [b]all things: for that is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21 [c]Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22 ¶ (B)[d] Servants, be obedient unto them that are your masters according to the flesh, in all things, not with eye service as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.
