3:21 Fathers,
do not provoke
your children, so they will not become disheartened.
3:22 Slaves,
obey your earthly
masters in every respect, not only when they are watching – like those who are strictly people-pleasers – but with a sincere heart, fearing the Lord.
3:23 Whatever you are doing,
work at it with enthusiasm,
as to the Lord and not for people,

3:7 But these assets I have come to regard as liabilities because of Christ.
3:8 More than that, I now regard all things as liabilities compared to the far greater value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things – indeed, I regard them as dung!
– that I may gain Christ,
3:9 and be found in him, not because I have my own righteousness derived from the law, but because I have the righteousness that comes by way of Christ’s faithfulness
– a righteousness from God that is in fact
based on Christ’s
faithfulness.

from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
