| Romans 13:2 | Therefore he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God. And they that resist, purchase to themselves damnation. | Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment. | Therefore he who resists the authority, withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment. |

And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same: | 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, |
| Romans 13:4 | For he is God's minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is God's minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil. | for he is a 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 a minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him that doeth evil. | 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. |
| Romans 13:5 | Wherefore be subject of necessity, not only for wrath, but also for conscience' sake. | Wherefore [ye] must needs be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience' sake. | Therefore you need to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience' sake. |
| Romans 13:6 | For therefore also you pay tribute. For they are the ministers of God, serving unto this purpose. | For this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God's service, attending continually upon this very thing. | For this reason you also pay taxes, for they are ministers of God's service, attending continually on this very thing. |
| Romans 13:7 | Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour. | Render to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute [is due]; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor. | 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. |
| Romans 13:8 | Owe no man any thing, but to love one another.

| Romans 13:9 | For 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 comprised in this word, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. | For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet, and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. | 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." |

Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and put on the armour of light. | The night is far spent, and the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. | 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. |
| Romans 13:13 | Let us walk honestly, as in the day: not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and impurities, not in contention and envy: | Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and jealousy. | 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. |
| Romans 13:14 | But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh in its concupiscences. | But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to [fulfil] the lusts [thereof]. | But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts. |
