"Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God."

“Let every soul be subject to higher powers. For there is no power but from God: and those that are ordained of God.”
“Let everyone put himself under the authority of the higher powers, because there is no power which is not of God, and all powers are ordered by God.”
“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.”
Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
