13Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
13Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
10 who in time past were no people, but now are God's people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
11 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
12 having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they see, glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;
14 or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
15 For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish 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 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;
2:13Submit 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;
