Honor Under the Yoke: Grammar Across the Ages in 1 Timothy 6:1
Ὅσοι εἰσὶν ὑπὸ ζυγὸν δοῦλοι, τοὺς ἰδίους δεσπότας πάσης τιμῆς ἀξίους ἡγείσθωσαν, ἵνα μὴ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ ἡ διδασκαλία βλασφημῆται.
(1 Timothy 6:1)

Literal English Translation: As many as are slaves under a yoke, let them regard their own masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be blasphemed.
