Ephesians 6:8

Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doth
According to the will of God, from right principles in his heart, and with a view to God's glory:

the same shall he receive of the Lord;
that is, he shall receive the fruit and advantage of it, in a way of grace,

whether [he be] bond or free;
a bondman or a free man, a master or a servant.

Ephesians 6:8 In-Context

6 You must do this not only while they are watching you, to please them. With all your heart you must do what God wants as people who are obeying Christ.
7 Do your work with enthusiasm. Work as if you were serving the Lord, not as if you were serving only men and women.
8 Remember that the Lord will give a reward to everyone, slave or free, for doing good.
9 Masters, in the same way, be good to your slaves. Do not threaten them. Remember that the One who is your Master and their Master is in heaven, and he treats everyone alike.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his great power.
