Colossians 4:1-4 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. Masters, treat your slaves justly and fairly, realizing that you too have a Master in heaven.

2. Persevere in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving;

3. at the same time, pray for us, too, that God may open a door to us for the word, to speak of the mystery of Christ, for which I am in prison,

4. that I may make it clear, as I must speak.
