| [1]Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers: for there is no power but of God: and the powers that be, are ordained of God. |
[1]Πᾶσα ψυχὴ ἐξουσίαις ὑπερεχούσαις ὑποτασσέσθω, οὐ γὰρ ἔστιν ἐξουσία εἰ μὴ ὑπὸ θεοῦ, αἱ δὲ ⸀οὖσαι ⸀ὑπὸ θεοῦ τεταγμέναι εἰσίν. |
| [2]Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist, shall receive to themselves judgment. |
[2]ὥστε ὁ ἀντιτασσόμενος τῇ ἐξουσίᾳ τῇ τοῦ θεοῦ διαταγῇ ἀνθέστηκεν, οἱ δὲ ἀνθεστηκότες ἑαυτοῖς κρίμα λήμψονται. |
| [3]For princes are not to be feared for good works, but for evil. Wilt ye then be without fear of the power? do well: so shalt thou have praise of the same. |
[3]οἱ γὰρ ἄρχοντες οὐκ εἰσὶν φόβος ⸂τῷ ἀγαθῷ ἔργῳ⸃ ἀλλὰ ⸂τῷ κακῷ⸃. θέλεις δὲ μὴ φοβεῖσθαι τὴν ἐξουσίαν; τὸ ἀγαθὸν ποίει, καὶ ἕξεις ἔπαινον ἐξ αὐτῆς· |
| [4]For he is the minister of God for thy wealth: but if thou do evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword for naught: for he is the minister of God to take vengeance on him that doeth evil. |
[4]θεοῦ γὰρ διάκονός ἐστιν σοὶ εἰς τὸ ἀγαθόν. ἐὰν δὲ τὸ κακὸν ποιῇς, φοβοῦ· οὐ γὰρ εἰκῇ τὴν μάχαιραν φορεῖ· θεοῦ γὰρ διάκονός ἐστιν, ἔκδικος εἰς ὀργὴν τῷ τὸ κακὸν πράσσοντι. |
| [5]Wherefore ye must be subject, not because of wrath only, but also for conscience sake. |
[5]διὸ ἀνάγκη ὑποτάσσεσθαι, οὐ μόνον διὰ τὴν ὀργὴν ἀλλὰ καὶ διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν, |
| [6]For, for this cause ye pay also tribute: for they are Gods ministers, applying themselves for the same thing. |
[6]διὰ τοῦτο γὰρ καὶ φόρους τελεῖτε, λειτουργοὶ γὰρ θεοῦ εἰσιν εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο προσκαρτεροῦντες. |
| [7]Give to all men therefore their duty: tribute, to whom ye owe tribute: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honor, to whom ye owe honor. |
[7]⸀ἀπόδοτε πᾶσι τὰς ὀφειλάς, τῷ τὸν φόρον τὸν φόρον, τῷ τὸ τέλος τὸ τέλος, τῷ τὸν φόβον τὸν φόβον, τῷ τὴν τιμὴν τὴν τιμήν. |
| [8]Owe nothing to any man, but to love one another: for he that loveth another, hath fulfilled the Law. |
[8]Μηδενὶ μηδὲν ὀφείλετε, εἰ μὴ τὸ ⸂ἀλλήλους ἀγαπᾶν⸃· ὁ γὰρ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἕτερον νόμον πεπλήρωκεν. |
| [9]For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet: and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, even in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. |
[9]τὸ γάρ· Οὐ μοιχεύσεις, Οὐ φονεύσεις, Οὐ κλέψεις, Οὐκ ἐπιθυμήσεις, καὶ εἴ τις ἑτέρα ἐντολή, ἐν ⸂τῷ λόγῳ τούτῳ⸃ ἀνακεφαλαιοῦται, ⸂ἐν τῷ⸃· Ἀγαπήσεις τὸν πλησίον σου ὡς σεαυτόν. |
| [10]Love doth not evil to his neighbor: therefore is love the fulfilling of the Law. |
[10]ἡ ἀγάπη τῷ πλησίον κακὸν οὐκ ἐργάζεται· πλήρωμα οὖν νόμου ἡ ἀγάπη. |
| [11]And that, considering the season, that it is now time that we should arise from sleep: for now is our salvation nearer, then when we believed it. |
[11]Καὶ τοῦτο εἰδότες τὸν καιρόν, ὅτι ὥρα ⸂ἤδη ὑμᾶς⸃ ἐξ ὕπνου ἐγερθῆναι, νῦν γὰρ ἐγγύτερον ἡμῶν ἡ σωτηρία ἢ ὅτε ἐπιστεύσαμεν. |
| [12]The night is past, and the day is at hand: let us therefore cast away the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light, |
[12]ἡ νὺξ προέκοψεν, ἡ δὲ ἡμέρα ἤγγικεν. ⸀ἀποβαλώμεθα οὖν τὰ ἔργα τοῦ σκότους, ⸂ἐνδυσώμεθα δὲ⸃ τὰ ὅπλα τοῦ φωτός. |
| [13]So that we walk honestly, as in the day: not in gluttony, and drunkenness, neither in chambering and wantonness, nor in strife and envying. |
[13]ὡς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ εὐσχημόνως περιπατήσωμεν, μὴ κώμοις καὶ μέθαις, μὴ κοίταις καὶ ἀσελγείαις, μὴ ἔριδι καὶ ζήλῳ, |
| [14]But put ye on the Lord JESUS CHRIST, and take no thought for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts of it. |
[14]ἀλλὰ ἐνδύσασθε τὸν κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν, καὶ τῆς σαρκὸς πρόνοιαν μὴ ποιεῖσθε εἰς ἐπιθυμίας. |
