NASB
"Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God."
— Romans 13:1, NASB
“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 in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and the powers that be are ordained of God. ”
“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.”
“Submission to Civil Government Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except by God’s appointment, and the authorities that exist have been instituted by 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.”
Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God.
Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves.
For rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from the same;
for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil.
