For there is no authority except from God; the authorities that exist are ordained by God. 2 Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist shall bring judgment upon themselves. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. 4 For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who does evil. 5 Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake.
