Romans 13:5

13:5 Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath of the authorities ¹  but also because of your conscience. ²

¹ tn Grk “its wrath”; the referent (the governing authorities) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Grk “because of (the) conscience,” but the English possessive “your” helps to show whose conscience the context implies.
