NAS

NIV

21 Were you called while a slave? Do not worry about it; but if you are able also to become free, rather do that.
21 Were you a slave when you were called? Don’t let it trouble you—although if you can gain your freedom, do so.
22 For he who was called in the Lord while a slave, is the Lord's freedman; likewise he who was called while free, is Christ's slave.
22 For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person; similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave.
23 You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.
23 You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings.
