* The two F.O.G. Bibles and Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.
World English Bible (WEB)
Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.
Strong's King James
And{G1161} they that have{G2192}{(G5723)} believing{G4103} masters{G1203}, let them{G2706} not{G3361} despise{G2706}{(G5720)} them, because{G3754} they are{G1526}{(G5748)} brethren{G80}; but{G235} rather{G3123} do them service{G1398}{(G5720)}, because{G3754} they are{G1526}{(G5748)} faithful{G4103} and{G2532} beloved{G27}, partakers{G482}{(G5740)} of the benefit{G2108}. These things{G5023} teach{G1321}{(G5720)} and{G2532} exhort{G3870}{(G5720)}.
The F.O.G *
(2) Now those who have believers as their masters mustn't despise them because they are brothers. But rather serve them more so because of helping to work good for believers who are beloved. Teach urgently this.
The F.O.G Message *
[2] When believers work for believing leaders, they shouldn't take advantage of their shared faith. Instead, they should serve even more excellently, knowing their work benefits beloved members of יהוה's family. Teach and emphasize these truths with conviction.
Young's Literal Translation
and those having believing masters, let them not slight them, because they are brethren, but rather let them serve, because they are stedfast and beloved, who of the benefit are partaking. These things be teaching and exhorting;
