Berean Standard Bible
1πασα ψυχη εξουσιαισ υπερεχουσαισ υποτασσεσθω ου γαρ εστιν εξουσια ει μη υπο θεου αι δε ουσαι εξουσιαι υπο του θεου τεταγμεναι εισιν
1Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God.
2ωστε ο αντιτασσομενοσ τη εξουσια τη του θεου διαταγη ανθεστηκεν οι δε ανθεστηκοτεσ εαυτοισ κριμα ληψονται
2Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
3οι γαρ αρχοντεσ ουκ εισιν φοβοσ των αγαθων εργων αλλα των κακων θελεισ δε μη φοβεισθαι την εξουσιαν το αγαθον ποιει και εξεισ επαινον εξ αυτησ
3For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his approval.
4θεου γαρ διακονοσ εστιν σοι εισ το αγαθον εαν δε το κακον ποιησ φοβου ου γαρ εικη την μαχαιραν φορει θεου γαρ διακονοσ εστιν εκδικοσ εισ οργην τω το κακον πρασσοντι
4For he is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not carry the sword in vain. He is God’s servant, an agent of retribution to the wrongdoer.
5διο αναγκη υποτασσεσθαι ου μονον δια την οργην αλλα και δια την συνειδησιν
5Therefore it is necessary to submit to authority, not only to avoid punishment, but also as a matter of conscience.
6δια τουτο γαρ και φορουσ τελειτε λειτουργοι γαρ θεου εισιν εισ αυτο τουτο προσκαρτερουντεσ
6This is also why you pay taxes. For the authorities are God’s servants, who devote themselves to their work.
7αποδοτε ουν πασιν τασ οφειλασ τω τον φορον τον φορον τω το τελοσ το τελοσ τω τον φοβον τον φοβον τω την τιμην την τιμην
7Pay everyone what you owe him: taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.
8μηδενι μηδεν οφειλετε ει μη το αγαπαν αλληλουσ ο γαρ αγαπων τον ετερον νομον πεπληρωκεν
8Be indebted to no one, except to one another in love. For he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
9το γαρ ου μοιχευσεισ ου φονευσεισ ου κλεψεισ ουκ επιθυμησεισ και ει τισ ετερα εντολη εν τουτω τω λογω ανακεφαλαιουται εν τω αγαπησεισ τον πλησιον σου ωσ σεαυτον
9The commandments “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not covet,” and any other commandments, are summed up in this one decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
10η αγαπη τω πλησιον κακον ουκ εργαζεται πληρωμα ουν νομου η αγαπη
10Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
11και τουτο ειδοτεσ τον καιρον οτι ωρα ημασ ηδη εξ υπνου εγερθηναι νυν γαρ εγγυτερον ημων η σωτηρια η οτε επιστευσαμεν
11And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
12η νυξ προεκοψεν η δε ημερα ηγγικεν αποθωμεθα ουν τα εργα του σκοτουσ και ενδυσωμεθα τα οπλα του φωτοσ
12The night is nearly over; the day has drawn near. So let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.
13ωσ εν ημερα ευσχημονωσ περιπατησωμεν μη κωμοισ και μεθαισ μη κοιταισ και ασελγειαισ μη εριδι και ζηλω
13Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy.
14αλλ ενδυσασθε τον κυριον ιησουν χριστον και τησ σαρκοσ προνοιαν μη ποιεισθε εισ επιθυμιασ
14Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.
