| 1 | Let euery soule bee subiect vnto the higher powers: For there is no power but of God. The powers that be, are ordeined of God. |
| 2 | Whosoeuer therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist, shall receiue to themselues damnation. |
| 3 | For rulers are not a terrour to good works, but to the euill. Wilt thou then not bee afraide of the power? doe that which is good, and thou shalt haue praise of the same. |
| 4 | For hee is the minister of God to thee for good: but if thou do that which is euill, be afraid: for he beareth not the sword in vaine: for he is the minister of God, a reuenger to execute wrath vpon him that doeth euill. |
| 5 | Wherfore ye must needs be subiect, not onely for wrath, but also for conscience sake. |
| 6 | For, for this cause pay you tribute also: for they are Gods ministers, attending continually vpon this very thing. |
| 7 | Render therfore to all their dues, tribute to whom tribute is due, custome to whome custome, feare to whome feare, honour to whom honour. |
| 8 | Owe no man any thing, but to loue one another: for hee that loueth another hath fulfilled the Law. |
| 9 | For this, Thou shalt not commit adulterie, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steale, Thou shalt not beare false witnesse, Thou shalt not couet: and if there be any other commandement, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt loue thy neighbour as thy selfe. |
| 10 | Loue worketh no ill to his neighbour, therefore loue is the fulfilling of the Law. |
| 11 | And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleepe: for now is our saluation neerer then when we beleeued. |
| 12 | The night is farre spent, the day is at hand: let vs therefore cast off the workes of darkenesse, and let vs put on the armour of light. |
| 13 | Let vs walke honestly as in the day, not in rioting and drunkennesse, not in chambring and wantonnes, not in strife and enuying. |
| 14 | But put yee on the Lord Iesus Christ, and make not prouision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof. |
