13Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
10 Who in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
12 Having your manner of life honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evil-doers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
14 Or to governors, as to them that are sent by him for the punishment of evil-doers, and for the praise of them that do well.

2:13Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every authority instituted among men: whether to the king, as the supreme authority,

2:13Be in subjection therefore to every human institution 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;
2:13Therefore 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;
