Romans 13:5 in Context — Romans 13
3 Pois os que possuem autoridade não causam temor às boas obras, mas sim, às más. Queres tu não ter medo de autoridade? Faz o bem, e dela receberás elogio,
4 porque ela é serva de Deus para o teu bem. Porém, se fizeres o mal, teme; porque ela não traz a espada em vão. Pois é serva de Deus, vingadora, para castigar a quem faz o mal.
5 Portanto, é necessário estar sujeito não somente por causa do castigo, mas também por causa da consciência.
6 Por isso também pagais impostos; porque são servidores de Deus, atendendo a essa função.
7 Portanto, dai a cada um o que deveis; a quem imposto, imposto; a quem taxa, taxa; a quem temor, temor; a quem honra, honra.
