Romans 13




ylt@Romans:13:1 @Let every soul to the higher authorities be subject, for there is no authority except from God, and the authorities existing are appointed by God,

ylt@Romans:13:2 @so that he who is setting himself against the authority, against God's ordinance hath resisted; and those resisting, to themselves shall receive judgment.

ylt@Romans:13:3 @For those ruling are not a terror to the good works, but to the evil; and dost thou wish not to be afraid of the authority? that which is good be doing, and thou shalt have praise from it,

ylt@Romans:13:4 @for of God it is a ministrant to thee for good; and if that which is evil thou mayest do, be fearing, for not in vain doth it bear the sword; for of God it is a ministrant, an avenger for wrath to him who is doing that which is evil.

ylt@Romans:13:5 @Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience,

ylt@Romans:13:6 @for because of this also pay ye tribute; for servants of God they are, on this very thing attending continually;

ylt@Romans:13:7 @render, therefore, to all [their] dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honour, the honour.

ylt@Romans:13:8 @To no one owe anything, except to love one another; for he who is loving the other -- law he hath fulfilled,

ylt@Romans:13:9 @for, 'Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false testimony, Thou shalt not covet;' and if there is any other command, in this word it is summed up, in this: 'Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;'

ylt@Romans:13:10 @the love to the neighbor doth work no ill; the love, therefore, [is] the fulness of law.

ylt@Romans:13:11 @And this, knowing the time, that for us, the hour already [is] to be aroused out of sleep, for now nearer [is] our salvation than when we did believe;

ylt@Romans:13:12 @the night did advance, and the day came nigh; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armour of the light;

ylt@Romans:13:13 @as in day-time, let us walk becomingly; not in revellings and drunkennesses, not in chamberings and lasciviousnesses, not in strife and emulation;

ylt@Romans:13:14 @but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought -- for desires.
