G1401–δοῦλος–doulos

Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an Apostle, set apart to proclaim God's Good News,

δοῦλος doulos “a servant”

Do you not know that if you surrender yourselves as bondservants to obey any one, you become the bondservants of him whom you obey, whether the bondservants of Sin (with death as the result) or of Duty (resulting in righteousness)?

δοῦλοι douloi “slaves”

For when you were the bondservants of sin, you were under no sort of subjection to Righteousness.

δοῦλοι douloi “slaves”

Were you a slave when God called you? Let not that weigh on your mind. And yet if you can get your freedom, take advantage of the opportunity.

δοῦλος doulos “Slave [being]”

(For we do not proclaim ourselves, but we proclaim Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bondservants for the sake of Jesus.)

δούλους doulous “servants”

For is it man's favour or God's that I aspire to? Or am I seeking to please men? If I were still a man-pleaser, I should not be Christ's bondservant.

Now I say that so long as an heir is a child, he in no respect differs from a slave, although he is the owner of everything,

Let all who are under the yoke of slavery hold their own masters to be deserving of honour, so that the name of God and the Christian teaching may not be spoken against.
