Romans 13:6

Obedience To The Governing Authorities

⁵ Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience, ⁶ for because of this also pay ye tribute; for servants of God they are, on this very thing attending continually; ⁷ render, therefore, to all their dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honour, the honour.
