13Be in subjection therefore to every human institution for the Lord's sake; whether to the king as supreme,
13Be in subjection therefore to every human institution for the Lord's sake; whether to the king as supreme,
10 who once were not a people, but now God's people; who were not enjoying mercy, but now have found mercy.
11 Beloved, I exhort you, as strangers and sojourners, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
12 having your conversation honest among the Gentiles, that as to that in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may through your good works, themselves witnessing them, glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Be in subjection therefore to every human institution for the Lord's sake; whether to the king as supreme,
14 or to rulers as sent by him, for vengeance on evildoers, and praise to them that do well.
15 Because so is the will of God, that by well-doing ye put to silence the ignorance of senseless men;
2:13Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
2:13Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every authority instituted among men: whether to the king, as the supreme authority,
2:13Be ye subject therefore to every human creature for God's sake: whether it be to the king as excelling;
2:13Be subject to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
2:13Be subject to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
2:13Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
2:13Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
2:13Be subject, then, to every human creation, because of the Lord, whether to a king, as the highest,
2:13Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
