Romans 13:5-7

Darby Translation

⁵ Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of wrath, but also on account of conscience.

⁶ For on this account ye pay tribute also; for they are God's officers, attending continually on this very thing.

⁷ Render to all their dues: to whom tribute [is due], tribute; to whom custom, custom; to whom fear, fear; to whom honour, honour.
