If you would have no fear of the authority, do good and you will have praise; <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> For he is the servant of God to you for good. But if you do evil, have fear; for the sword is not in his hand for nothing: he is God&#8217;s servant, making God&#8217;s punishment come on the evil-doer. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> So put yourselves under the authority, not for fear of wrath, but because you have the knowledge of what is right. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> For the same reason, make payment of taxes; because the authority is God&#8217;s servant, to take care of such things at all times. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> Give to all what is their right: taxes to him whose they are, payment to him whose right it is, fear to whom fear, honour to whom honour is to be given. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> Be in debt for nothing, but to have love for one another: for he who has love for his neighbour has kept all the law. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> And this, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not put to death, Do not take what is another&#8217;s, Do not have desire for what is another&#8217;s, and if there is any other order, it is covered by this word, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> Love does no wrong to his neighbour, so love makes the law complete. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> See then that the time has come for you to be awake from sleep: for now is your salvation nearer than when you first had faith. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> The night is far gone, and the day is near: so let us put off the works of the dark, arming ourselves with light, <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> With right behaviour as in the day; not in pleasure-making and drinking, not in bad company and unclean behaviour, not in fighting and envy. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not give thought to the flesh to do its desires. <\/br><script
