New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
16
Act
as free people, and do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but
use it
as bond-servants of God.
17
Honor all people, love the brotherhood, fear God, honor the king.
18
Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but also to those who are harsh.
King James Version
Chapter 2
16
As free, and not using
your
liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
17
Honour all
men
. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
18
Servants,
be
subject to
your
masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
