Romans 13
|
- 13:1 Let
every
soul be
subject unto the
higher
powers.
For there
is
no
power
but
of
God
*: the
powers that
be
are
ordained
of
God.
|
- 13:2 Whosoever
therefore
resisteth the
power,
resisteth the
ordinance of
God:
and they that
resist shall
receive to
themselves
damnation.
|
- 13:3
For
rulers
are
not a
terror to
good
works,
but to the
evil. Wilt
thou
then
not be
afraid of the
power?
do that which is
good,
and thou shalt
have
praise
of the
same:
|
- 13:4
For he
is the
minister of
God to
thee
for
good.
But
if thou
do that which is
evil, be
afraid ;
for he
beareth
not the
sword in
vain:
for he
is the
minister of
God, a
revenger to execute
wrath
upon him that
doeth
evil.
|
- 13:5
Wherefore ye must
needs be
subject,
not
only
for
wrath,
but
also for
conscience
sake.
|
- 13:6
For
for
this
cause pay
ye
tribute
also:
for they
are
God's
ministers, attending
continually
upon
this very
thing.
|
- 13:7
Render
therefore to
all their
dues:
tribute to
whom
tribute is due;
custom to
whom
custom;
fear to
whom
fear;
honour to
whom
honour.
|
- 13:8
Owe no
man any
thing,
but to
love one
another:
for he that
loveth
another hath
fulfilled the
law.
|
- 13:9
For this, Thou
shalt
not commit
adultery, Thou
shalt
not
kill, Thou
shalt
not
steal, Thou
shalt
not bear false
witness, Thou
shalt
not
covet;
and if there be
any
other
commandment, it is briefly
comprehended
in
this
saying,
namely, Thou shalt
love
thy
neighbour
as
thyself.
|
- 13:10
Love
worketh
no
ill to his
neighbour:
therefore
love is the
fulfilling of the
law.
|
- 13:11
And
that,
knowing the
time,
that
now it is high
time to
awake
* out
of
sleep:
for
now is
our
salvation
nearer
than
when we
believed.
|
- 13:12 The
night is far
spent
*, the
day is at
hand: let
us
therefore cast
off the
works of
darkness,
and let us put
on the
armour of
light.
|
- 13:13 Let us
walk
honestly,
as
in the
day;
not in
rioting
and
drunkenness,
not in
chambering
and
wantonness,
not in
strife
and
envying.
|
- 13:14
But put ye
on the
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
and
make
not
provision
for the
flesh, to fulfil the
lusts thereof.
