| The Book of Romans 13 | ||||||||||||||||
| The Young's Literal Translation Online Bible (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, | |||||||||||||||
| 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. | |||||||||||||||
| 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, | |||||||||||||||
| 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Romans 13:5 | Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience, | |||||||||||||||
| Romans 13:6 | for because of this also pay ye tribute; for servants of God they are, on this very thing attending continually; | |||||||||||||||
| 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. | |||||||||||||||
| Romans 13:8 | To no one owe anything, except to love one another; for he who is loving the other law he hath fulfilled, | |||||||||||||||
| 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;` | |||||||||||||||
| Romans 13:10 | the love to the neighbor doth work no ill; the love, therefore, [is] the fulness of law. | |||||||||||||||
| 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; | |||||||||||||||
| 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; | |||||||||||||||
| 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; | |||||||||||||||
| Romans 13:14 | but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought for desires. | |||||||||||||||
