2Therefore he who resists the authority, withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment.
2Therefore he who resists the authority, withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment.
1 Let every soul be in subjection to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God.
2 Therefore he who resists the authority, withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment.
3 For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Do you desire to have no fear of the authority? Do that which is good, and you will have praise from the same,
4 for he is a servant of God to you for good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid, for he doesn't bear the sword in vain; for he is a servant of God, an avenger for wrath to him who does evil.
13:2Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
13:2Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
13:2Therefore he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God. And they that resist, purchase to themselves damnation.
13:2Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment.
13:2So that he that sets himself in opposition to the authority resists the ordinance of God; and they who thus resist shall bring sentence of guilt on themselves.
13:2Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment.
13:2Whoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
13:2so that he who is setting himself against the authority, against God's ordinance hath resisted; and those resisting, to themselves shall receive judgment.
13:2Whoever therefore resists the power, resists the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
