OET (OET-LV) And the masters, be_doing the same things toward them, giving_up the threat, having_known that the Master both of_them and of_you_all is in the_heavens, and favouritism is not with him.
OET (OET-RV) Masters, do the same towards your slaves. You know that both the slaves and you have the same master in the heavens, so don’t threaten them because our master has no favourites.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὰ αὐτὰ ποιεῖτε πρὸς αὐτούς
the same_‹things› /be/_doing toward them
Here, the same refers back to “if he does something good” from (Ephesians 6:8). Alternate translation: “you also must treat your slaves well” or “just as slaves must do good to their masters, you also must do good to your slaves”
εἰδότες ὅτι καὶ αὐτῶν καὶ ὑμῶν ὁ Κύριός ἐστιν ἐν οὐρανοῖς
/having/_known that both ˱of˲_them and ˱of˲_you_all the Master is in /the/_heavens
Alternate translation: “You know that Christ is the Master of both slaves and their masters, and that he is in heaven”
προσωπολημψία οὐκ ἔστιν παρ’ αὐτῷ
favoritism not is with him
Alternate translation: “he judges everyone the same way”
6:9 in the same way: That is, with integrity and concern for their welfare (see Col 4:1).
• Don’t threaten them: Christian masters, too, will be held accountable by the same Master in heaven for their lives on earth. Pleasing him requires treating their slaves humanely and kindly.
• he has no favorites: God judges all people by the same standard (see Deut 10:17; Acts 10:34; Rom 2:11; Col 3:25).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
