King James Version
Let every soul be in
subjection
to
the higher authorities,
for there is no authority
except
from
God ,
and
those
who
exist
are ordained by
God.
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.
Therefore he
who
resists
the authority
, withstands
the ordinance of God ;
and those
who
withstand
will
receive to themselves judgment
.
Whosoever
therefore resisteth
the power
, resisteth
the ordinance of God :
and they
that
resist
shall
receive to themselves damnation
.
For rulers are not a terror to the
good work
, but to the evil. Do
you
desire
to
have
no
fear
of the authority
? Do that which is good, and you
will
have praise from
the same ,
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 :
for he is a
servant
of God to you
for good. But if you
do that which is evil, be afraid ,
for he doesn't
bear
the sword in vain ;
for he is a
minister of God, an
avenger
for
wrath
to him who
does
evil.
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.
Therefore
you
need
to
be in
subjection
, not only because
of
the
wrath, but also for conscience '
sake.
Wherefore
ye
must
needs
be subject
, not only for
wrath, but also for conscience sake.
For this reason
you
also
pay taxes,
for they are ministers
of
God's service
, attending continually on
this very thing.
For for
this cause
pay ye
tribute
also:
for they are God's ministers
, attending continually upon
this very thing.
Give
therefore to everyone
what
you
owe
: taxes
to whom taxes
are
due; customs
to whom customs
; respect
to whom respect
; honor
to whom honor
.
Render
therefore to all
their
dues
: tribute
to whom tribute
is
due; custom
to whom custom
; fear
to whom fear
; honour
to whom honour
.
Owe no one
anything
, except
to love one another ;
for he who
loves
his
neighbor
has
fulfilled the law.
Owe no man
any
thing
, but
to love one another :
for he that
loveth
another
hath
fulfilled the law.
For the
commandments
, "You
shall
not commit adultery, "
"You
shall
not murder
, "
"You
shall
not steal, "
"You
shall
not give
false testimony
, "
"You
shall
not covet ,"
and whatever
other
commandments
there are
, are
all
summed
up
in this saying, namely, "You
shall
love your
neighbor
as yourself
. "
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
.
Love doesn't
harm
a
neighbor.
Love
therefore is the fulfillment
of the law.
Love worketh
no
ill
to
his
neighbour:
therefore love
is the fulfilling
of the law.
Do
this
, knowing the time, that it is already
time for
you
to awaken
out of sleep ,
for salvation
is
now nearer to
us
than when we first
believed.
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.
The night is far gone
, and
the day is near.
Let's
therefore throw
off the works of darkness, and let's
put on the armor
of light.
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.
Let us walk properly
, as in the day; not in reveling
and drunkenness, not in sexual
promiscuity
and lustful
acts
, and
not in strife and jealousy
.
Let us walk honestly
, as in the day; not in rioting
and drunkenness, not in chambering
and wantonness
, not in strife and envying
.
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no
provision for the flesh, for
its
lusts.
But put ye
on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not
provision for the flesh, to
fulfil
the
lusts thereof
.
