And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same: read more.
for he is a 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 a minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him that doeth evil.

For this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God's service, attending continually upon this very thing.
