Romans - Chapter: 13
| 13:1 | Let euery soule submit him selfe vnto the authoritie of the hygher powers. For there is no power but of God. |
| 13:2 | The powers that be are ordeyned of God. Whosoeuer therfore resisteth power, resisteth the ordinaunce of GOD. And they that resiste, shall receyue to them selfe damnacyon. |
| 13:3 | For rulars are not to be feared for good workes, but for euyll. Wylte thou be wyth oute feare of the power? Do well then: and so shalte thou be praysed of the same. |
| 13:4 | For he is the minister of GOD, for thy welth. But and yf thou do euyll, then feare: for he beareth not a swearde for noughte, but is the minister of God, to take vengeaunce on them that do euyll. |
| 13:5 | Wherfore ye muste nedes obeye, not for feare of vengeaunce onelye, but also because of conscience. |
| 13:6 | And euen for thys cause paye ye trybute. For they are Goddes ministers, seruynge for the same purpose. |
| 13:7 | Geue to euerye man therfore hys dutye: Tribute to whom trybute belongeth: Custome to whom custome is due: feare to whome feare belongeth: Honoure to whom honoure pertayneth. |
| 13:8 | Owe nothynge to anye man: but to loue one another. For he that loueth another, fulfylleth the lawe. |
| 13:9 | For these commaundementes Thou shalte not commyt aduoutrye: Thou shalte not kyll: Thou shalt not steale: Thou shalte not beare false wytnesse: Thou shalte not desyre: and so forth (yf there be anye other commaundente) they are all comprehended in thys saiynge: Loue thyne neyghboure as thy selfe. |
| 13:10 | Loue hurteth not hys neyghbour. Therfore is loue the fulfyllynge of the lawe. |
| 13:11 | Thys also we knowe, I meane the season, howe that it is tyme, that we should now awake oute of slepe. For nowe is oure saluacyon nearer, then when we beleued. |
| 13:12 | The night is passed, and the day is come ny. Let vs therfore caste awaye the dedes of darcknes, & let vs put on the Armoure of lyghte. |
| 13:13 | Let vs walke honestlye as it were in the daye lyght: not in eatynge and drynkynge: neyther in chamburynge and wantonnes, neyther in stryfe & enuiynge: |
| 13:14 | but put ye on the Lorde Iesus Christ. And make not prouysyon for the fleshe, to fulfyll the lustes of it. |
| 13:1 | Let euery soule submyt hym selfe vnto the auctoryte of the hyer powers. For there is no power but of God. |
| 13:2 | The powers that be, are ordeyned of God. Whosoeuer therfore resysteth power, resysteth the ordinaunce of God. But they that resyst, shall receaue to them selfe damnacyon. |
| 13:3 | For rulers are not fearfull to them that do good, but to them that do euyll. Wylt thou be without feare of the power? Do well then: and so shalt thou he praysed of the same. |
| 13:4 | For he is the mynyster of God, for thy welth. But and yf thou do that which is, euyll, then feare: for he beareth not the sweard for nought: for he is the mynister of God, to take vengeaunce on hym that doth euyll. |
| 13:5 | Wherfore, ye must nedes obeye, not onely for feare of vengeaunce: but also because of conscience. |
| 13:6 | And euen for this cause paye ye tribute. For they are Goddes mynysters, seruinge for the same purpose. |
| 13:7 | Geue to euery man therfore hys duetye: tribute to whom tribute belongeth: custome, to whom custome is due: feare, to whom feare belongeth: honoure, to whom honoure pertayneth. |
| 13:8 | O we nothynge to eny man: but thys, that ye loue one another. For he that loueth another hath fulfylled the lawe. |
| 13:9 | For these commaundementes. Thou shalt not commytt aduoutry: thou shalt not kyll: thou shalt not steale: thou shalt not beare false wytnes: thou shalt not lust, and so forth (yf there be eny other commaundement) it is all comprehended in thys sayinge, Namely: Loue thyne neyghbour as thy selfe. |
| 13:10 | Loue hurteth not his neyghbour. Therfore is loue the fulfyllinge of the lawe. |
| 13:11 | This also, we knowe the season howe that it is tyme that we shulde now awake out of slepe. For now is oure saluacyon nearer, then when we beleued. |
| 13:12 | The nyght is passed, the daye is come nye. Let vs therfore cast awaye the dedes of darcknes, and let vs put on the Armoure of lyght. |
| 13:13 | Let vs walke honestly as it were in the daye lyght: not in eatynge & drynckynge, nether in chamburyng and wantannes, nether in stryfe & enuyinge: |
| 13:14 | but put ye on the Lorde Iesus Chryst. And make not prouisyon for the fleshe, to fulfyll the lustes of it. |
| 13:1 | Let euery soule be subiect vnto the higher powers: for there is no power but of God: and the powers that be, are ordeined of God. |
| 13:2 | Whosoeuer therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist, shall receiue to themselues condemnation. |
| 13:3 | For Magistrates are not to be feared for good workes, but for euill. Wilt thou then bee without feare of the power? doe well: so shalt thou haue praise of the same. |
| 13:4 | For he is ye minister of God for thy wealth, but if thou do euill, feare: for he beareth not the sworde for nought: for he is the minister of God to take vengeance on him that doeth euill. |
| 13:5 | Wherefore ye must bee subiect, not because of wrath only, but also for conscience sake. |
| 13:6 | For, for this cause ye pay also tribute: for they are Gods ministers, applying themselues for the same thing. |
| 13:7 | Giue to all men therefore their duetie: tribute, to whome yee owe tribute: custome, to whom custome: feare, to whome feare: honour, to whom ye owe honour. |
| 13:8 | Owe nothing to any man, but to loue one another: for he that loueth another, hath fulfilled the Lawe. |
| 13:9 | For this, Thou shalt not commit adulterie, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steale, Thou shalt not beare false witnes, Thou shalt not couet: and if there be any other commandement, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, euen in this, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe. |
| 13:10 | Loue doeth not euill to his neighbour: therefore is loue the fulfilling of the Lawe. |
| 13:11 | And that, considering the season, that it is now time that we should arise from sleepe: for now is our saluation neerer, then when we beleeued it. |
| 13:12 | The night is past, and the day is at hande, let vs therefore cast away the workes of darkenesse, and let vs put on the armour of light, |
| 13:13 | So that wee walke honestly, as in the day: not in gluttonie, and drunkennesse, neither in chambering and wantonnes, nor in strife and enuying. |
| 13:14 | But put yee on the Lord JESUS CHRIST, and take no thought for the flesh, to fulfill the lustes of it. |
