1 Peter 2:18-20

YLT

NIV

18 The domestics! be subjecting yourselves in all fear to the masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the cross;
18 Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh.
19 for this [is] gracious, if because of conscience toward God any one doth endure sorrows, suffering unrighteously;
19 For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God.
20 for what renown [is it], if sinning and being buffeted, ye do endure [it]? but if, doing good and suffering [for it], ye do endure, this [is] gracious with God,
20 But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God.
