Tribute » Rendering tribute

He therefore that setteth himself against the authority resisteth what God hath ordained; and they a who resist will bring upon themselves judgment.

for the ruler is Gods servant to thee for good. But if thou doest evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain; for he is Gods servant, an avenger to inflict wrath upon him that doeth evil. It is necessary therefore to submit, not only because of the wrath, but also for your conscience sake. For the same reason pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God, attending continually to this very business. Render to all what is due to them; tribute, to whom tribute is due; custom, to whom custom; fear, to whom fear; honor, to whom honor.
