emtv - 1Peter:2:13-20

emtv@1Peter:2:13 @ Therefore subject yourselves to every human institution on account of the Lord: whether to the king as [to one] having authority,

emtv@1Peter:2:14 @ or to governors, as to those being sent for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise [of those] doing good.

emtv@1Peter:2:15 @ For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may silence the ignorance of foolish men-

emtv@1Peter:2:16 @ as free, yet not using freedom as a cover for wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

emtv@1Peter:2:17 @ Honor all [people]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

emtv@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, subject yourselves to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the crooked.

emtv@1Peter:2:19 @ For this is admirable, if because of conscience toward God someone endures pain, suffering unjustly.

emtv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what glory [is it,] if when you sin and are beaten, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer [for it,] you endure, this is admirable before God.
