Romans 13 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Rom 13:1Let 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.
Rom 13:2Therefore he who resists the authority, withstands the ordinance of God; and those who withstand will receive to themselves judgment.
Rom 13:3For 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,
Rom 13:4for 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 minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him who does evil.
Rom 13:5Therefore you need to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience' sake.
Rom 13:6For this reason you also pay taxes, for they are ministers of God's service, attending continually on this very thing.
Rom 13:7Give therefore to everyone what you owe: taxes to whom taxes are due; customs to whom customs; respect to whom respect; honor to whom honor.
(cf. Mar 12:31; Jas 2:8 )
Rom 13:8Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
Rom 13:9For the mitzvot, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not give false testimony," "You shall not covet," and whatever other mitzvot there are, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
Rom 13:10Love doesn't harm a neighbor. Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law.
Rom 13:11Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.
Rom 13:12The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let's therefore throw off the works of darkness, and let's put on the armor of light.
Rom 13:13Let us walk properly, as in the day; not in reveling and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts, and not in strife and jealousy.
Rom 13:14But put on the Lord Yeshua the Messiah, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.
