Colossians 3:23

And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men,

Colossians 3:23 · World English Bible

In context

²¹Fathers, don’t provoke your children, so that they won’t be discouraged.

²²Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.

²³And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men,

²⁴knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

²⁵But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
