emtv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul submit to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except by God, and the authorities that exist are instituted by God.

emtv@Romans:13:2 @ Consequently the [one] resisting the authority has opposed the ordinance of God, and those opposing shall receive judgment to themselves.

emtv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a fear to good works, but to evil. And do you wish not to fear the authority?[ ]Do what is good, and you shall have praise from the same.

emtv@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's servant to you for good. But if you do evil, fear; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's servant, an avenger for wrath to the [one] practicing evil.

emtv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of wrath, but also for conscience' sake.

emtv@Romans:13:6 @ For on account of this you also pay taxes, for they are ministers of God, always giving attention to this very thing.

emtv@Romans:13:7 @ Render therefore to all their dues: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.

emtv@Romans:13:8 @ Owe nothing to no one, except to love one another, for he who loves one another has fulfilled the law.

emtv@Romans:13:9 @ For, "You shall not commit adultery,""You shall not murder,""You shall not steal,""You shall not covet,"and [if ]there is any other commandment, in this word it is summed up, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

emtv@Romans:13:10 @ Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

emtv@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the time, that [it is] already[ the] hour for us to be roused out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we [first ]believed.

emtv@Romans:13:12 @ The night is advanced, the day is at hand. Therefore let us put off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

emtv@Romans:13:13 @ Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelries and drinking bouts, not in orgies and debaucheries, not in strife and jealousy.

emtv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for [its] lusts.
